metáfora, teoría darwinista, evolución, coevolución, psicología evolutiva, organizaciones empresariales.

Resumen

El objeto del presente artículo es proveer un enfoque sobre la utilización metafórica desde la concepción evolucionista de la teoría darwinista a distintas áreas del conocimiento –ciencias sociales, antropología, sociología, psicología y economía–. Se realiza un análisis teórico de los vínculos que guardan dichas áreas con las organizaciones empresariales, arribando a una fundamentación teórica sucinta de las interrelaciones que tiene la evolución como concepto biológico con la realidad de la empresa. Esta última, como cualquier especie, debe adaptarse al entorno en la contienda por su existencia, además de coevolucionar para aumentar sus probabilidades de sobrevivencia. Por último, se idean ausencias o contradicciones que dilucidan prismas para futuras investigaciones.
