"The only constant is change" Heraclitus


Making an analysis of current economic scenario we can think about the fall of old assumptions. Cobra relevant notorious assertion that the economy must truly serve society in a framework of strict moral and ethical rules governing the behaviors that arise in the market.

analyzing reality from a micro perspective, entrepreneurial activity has a great opportunity to become a critical success factor in the economies around the world. Innovation, flexibility and ability to seize opportunities entrepreneurs can make it a mainstay in the revival of a global economic system now in recession.

The breakdown of these paradigms provides a great opportunity for the development of a more just society, either from the quantitative point of view of national income and output, as the qualitative aspect concerning the realization of man as a tool for transformation and wealth generation. Dignified work and helps the person to the real economy.


Global Markets


"The future success depends on our decisions today and no decisions will be neither successful nor future


Globalization facilitates the integration of territories, cultures, economies and this is a reality that no markets are exempt. In this way it acquires another regional significance, not less but different. The markets are in a process of internationalization and horizontal integration of companies driven by strategic alliances and collaborative by leaps and bounds. In this sense there are infinite possibilities opened by the fluid geographical intercom. Thanks to this increased flow of information, goods and people, can be accomplished with relative ease penetration into international markets. Global opportunities that open, driven by entrepreneurial activity, enable this integration.

volatility in economies that goes in crescendo and becomes an endemic feature, the entrepreneur provides the flexibility to adapt to change, to shorten its structure and weather the storm, to diversify the products or services offered; remarkable ability to acquire relevant nowadays. As it pertains to the productive sector, good corporate governance, creativity and innovation are critical factors for development-and growth-not only in an economy.


is imperative the need for joint projects. In that sense, the associative of people and companies shows some advantages: greater bargaining power with suppliers, better prices on inputs, joint marketing strategies between a group of small producers, machinery sharing, joint technology developments, know- how and to the development of coordinated trade.

Young entrepreneurs are to the advantage of greater open-mindedness and flexibility for scheme to internalize the win / win, handled by Stephen Covey in his best-seller "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People."


Interestingly, the contribution of Monica Martinez Adriana Liendo and , teachers Faculty of Economics and Statistics, National University Rosario, in a report referred to in particular which argues that "in order to harness and enhance the strengths of each of the members, the partnership model enables more efficient development projects, minimizing individual risk. The associated companies through the implementation of joint actions improve competitiveness and increase production through partnerships between different actors interacting in the market by increasing the opportunities for individual and collective growth. "


entrepreneurial activity as an opportunity for personal development


"There is a driving force more powerful than steam, electricity and atomic energy: will "Albert Einstein


50% of technical and process innovations from entrepreneurial activity. This number increases to 95% in the case of disruptive technologies or radical innovations. Joseph Schumpeter, Austrian economist, argues in his book " Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy" that "the role of entrepreneurs is to reform or revolutionize the pattern of production by exploiting an invention or an untried technical possibility to produce a new product or an old one new way, or provide a new source of inputs or a new material, or reorganizing an industry. Such activities are responsible for recurrent primary prosperity that revolutionizes the economic organism " 2


For any of the social sectors whether or not qualified, there are many paths that may be because the economy has a broad range of unmet needs. This process requires attention to detect when it is possible to transform a physical or natural human being, a viable economic opportunity. The essential condition for the process to be successful is to take the initiative . Another important parameter in the search is to identify entrepreneurial market niches, as the capabilities and resources are limited by the entrepreneur and make it impossible to meet the needs of mass markets. Can be considered a core activity of entrepreneurial activity continued development of sustainable competitive advantage, however, it is important to understand that the dynamics of competition leads to the passage of time they are "commoditized", ie are taken by the other competitors. The main beneficiary in this competitive bidding is the consumer.


It must needs be comparative advantages pertaining to geography, natural resources and human resource training, to transform them into tangible competitive strengths. The wealth of a country is not determined by the resources it has, but by the ability to transform the reality of resources productively.


The role of the state and the third sector in promoting the entrepreneurial culture


"There are successful companies in societies that fail"


can not ignore the importance of government, universities and so-called "third sector" - formed foundations and non-governmental organizations as key actors in promoting entrepreneurship.

worth noting the case of business incubators, a program that takes place at universities and technology centers across the country, which offers a conducive environment for entrepreneurs to generate economic projects and social. The goal of these programs is to create a network among professionals, entrepreneurs and public and private stakeholders to provide tools to facilitate implementation of projects with high added value.


Interestingly the Italian experience a strong culture dominated SME. In that country are very deep-called clusters or industrial districts, a sort of territorial agglomeration of industries, vertical and horizontal relationships due to the integration of input suppliers and establish strategic alliances between companies in the same sector. Thus the easy availability of inputs and production factors reduces transaction costs and barriers to entry, and competition increases competition in product innovation is one of the main engines of growth and competitiveness.


associative cooperative efforts and plans for synergy between public and private sector have given successful results in the fight to include those to which the circumstances were relegated system. NGOs bring a dynamic and flexible management that lacks the state. They can therefore be established as agents and evaluators of projects by their management capacity. It is also necessary that the State provide lines of credit and grant fund for these projects to facilitate its implementation running.

The economic crisis in the United States revived an old argument about the importance of state action in regulating the markets and the need for wealth generation has close relation to production and not strictly speculative. However, it is important to avoid short-sighted and extremely ideologized readings that take away objectivity to the analysis. There should be an unfounded prosecution, for example in respect of capital markets that make a significant contribution to the flow of credit needed for economic growth . must hastily find a balance inclusive.


The sustainability of an economy is determined by the real possibility of providing opportunities over time to all citizens. To the extent that this is not met, continue attending incomplete achievements of the capitalist system. In this regard, initiatives such as valid Corporate Social Responsibility , the Global Compact UN and micro-finance, among others.

All citizens have a moral commitment to make every effort to break exclusion, historical debt humanity. In short, we should go -as indicated by the economist Bernardo Kliksberg-toward economy with a human face.

"For dinner? Words ...

As a graduate of Social Sciences, have always been the concern of what talents I can add to a community self-sufficient in case of a global catastrophe (read any apocalyptic movie premise.) In general my skills have to do with a. words, b. technology, or c. intangible ... If we face a world where we should plant, harvest, build and create basic consumer everything, seriously, why should I serve? This is where I regret not have listened to my mother in the medical career or otherwise, at least pay attention to my sister when I was talking about the garden he had in the backyard.

This article reawakened me worry. And really, I think it is still time to learn a task that, given a possible apocalyptic situation, Therefore, allowing me to plant potatoes, not words. (On second thought, learn how to kill zombies would not be a bad idea either ...) Update

.- Very well, "Barber" does not qualify as a first-class talent in a post-apocalyptic world. But fighting the zombies, you always need a good cut ("Milla Jojovich, anyone?).

The network: a social service? Prohibited

Much has been said about the importance of social media as a vehicle to report immediately and often, first hand, events that the mainstream media have no access second to second ... Cristian is a person who is constantly pointing out key moments in which, for example, Twitter is there first. However, I believe that unlike previous occasions, the Iranian elections a few days ago and the subsequent street demonstrations and events whose images have been distributed by Flicker, Twitter and Facebook, among others, has become a front to fight for those who believe the Internet is the tool most important social empowerment in the world today. Why?

First, display (to the point of ridicule) the use of large media corporations are the first-hand information. The mainstream media in order to ensure the audience, play what you or I do every day: sit down at the computer and tell. Here, the media have lost (at least those using the computer often), why sit and watch CNN shows me pages of Facebook and Twitter messages when I can do it myself, using my computer, browsing my own pace and without being constrained by a linear communication one-way? Jon Stewart covers the news. I recommend it but he said, is The Daily Show and not politically correct. However, I think that puts your finger in the wound: View Video .

Second, states unequivocally as social media allow the rise of movements outside the status quo that its social, interactive systems are a threat that governments are already trying to control. Iran may is the latest example, but China (see video at minute 6:53) and Italy (in Italian , English) have important steps to censor, silence and control what is said and what is not said in Intenert. These are just 3 examples, but more and as always, just a search in a browser to find them easily.

And this is precisely the issue ... Just type a sentence only to have information. The discussion here is not whether the information is accurate or not. The important thing is that it exists. And I believe, fervently, that users have the right to create, share and access information, because social capital is priceless (or at least he should not have). However, we must remember that as a right, this means homework. First, the information is truthful, accurate and verifiable, but more importantly that violates the human rights principles. And second, we are responsible consumers. Us to report information that is not true, we do our part (We are not just passive consumers) and above all, we help new users literacy and our children to use and Internet use is responsible and as such, become a social service, where my grain of sand, Although mediated by a computer, at least there.

Milani, Denise Wikipedia



The effect of road collapse after the lifting of restrictions on capital income to the end-plate looks like rows of people in supermarkets buying 8 liters of liquor and 52 beers for Thursday and Friday of Holy Week, two days in which the law does not sell alcohol ... And although there is no special reason for that to get drunk week, people go to the supermarket on Wednesday night and buy a stock like they have to prepare to enter a bunker after the fall of an atomic bomb. This is typical of the Costa Rican ... When something is forbidden, although in normal circumstances would not do, we are first in line. Conversely, when something is forbidden it becomes "legal", we must do so immediately. Probably not many people took the car because they needed it, but simply because "they could."

Which leads me to think ... for the next elections, should not tell people that is prohibited from voting? I'm sure if so, at the time the polls are opened, they would have thousands of people waiting to "do the right value." But now, as voting "can be" the most Ticos lazy and although we are able to complain about the government that chose other, prefer to stay by taking the liquor we have stored in the hold from the previous Easter.
