Los mercados como redes: el enraizamiento de la seguridad privada en Argentina

Abstract

A partir de un estudio de la seguridad privada en Argentina, exploramos algunas hipótesis desarrolladas en el ámbito de la sociología económica para el estudio de los mercados: por un lado, que los empresarios utilizan sus contactos y su reputación para crear y mantener una clientela; por otro, que las empresas tratan de ocupar nichos para evitar una lucha abierta y frontal con sus competidores. Siguiendo las ideas desarrolladas por Mark Granovetter, Harrison White y Wayne Baker, el artículo muestra que la conformación de un mercado no es la respuesta a una demanda preexistente, sino el resultado de la iniciativa de los empresarios y de las estrategias de adaptación de las empresas, y que los mercados en general no se organizan como realidades simples y homogéneas, sino como estructuras diferenciadas de roles fundadas en redes limitadas y restrictivas.

Based on an inquiry into private security in Argentina, this paper explores some hypotheses developed in the field of economic sociology to study markets: on the one hand, that entrepreneurs use their contacts and reputation to create and maintain a clientele; on the other hand, that companies try to fill niches to avoid an open competition with its contenders. Following the ideas developed by Mark Granovetter and Wayne Baker, the paper shows that the development of a market is not the response to an existing demand, but the result of the initiative of entrepreneurs and the strategies of firms, and that markets generally are not organized as simple and homogeneous realities, but as distinct structures of roles based on limited and restrictive networks.
