La economía es la ciencia que estudia cómo las sociedades gestionan sus recursos limitados para satisfacer necesidades ilimitadas, analizando la producción, distribución y consumo de bienes y servicios.
Sus raíces se remontan a la antigüedad, con pensadores como Aristóteles, quien reflexionó sobre el comercio y el valor. Sin embargo, surgió como disciplina formal en el siglo XVIII con Adam Smith y su obra La riqueza de las naciones, donde planteó las bases del mercado y la división del trabajo. Desde entonces, evolucionó con teorías como las de Marx, Keynes o Hayek, adaptándose a los cambios sociales y tecnológicos.
Aquí encontrarás viñetas sobre economía y artículos que analizan con humor y crítica sus vericuetos desde las crisis financieras hasta las políticas económicas que afectan a nuestro día a día.
