LOPEZ LOZANO, Rafael Baldomero. Social representations in the economic elites of the city of Lima, Peru. []. , 31, pp.141-157. ISSN 1390-8634.  https://doi.org/10.17163/uni.n31.2019.07.

This article exposes the representations of the social actors that make up the nation among a group of businessmen and executives belonging to various business associations in Lima. In that way, this work recollected narratives of their personal lives inside the social context. For that reason, the objective of these research was share the economic elite representations in the perspective of narratives and testimony instead of structure studies. These representations were around businessmen, the government and different social groups. In addition of this, the research is born from the need to study the most privileged sectors from anthropology because it helps to understand how in Latin American societies power is exercised. Finally, we exposed the case of study, the methodology used and the researches about economic elites in Peru.
