Abstract

In the article, approximations are made to the utopian statements of an economy for life and the relations that the subjects establish with utopias are determined. In the method of analysis, the transcendences that the subjects carry out during the development of the economic process are detected. The results indicate that the general utopian statement of an economy for life is "life on Earth is eternal and full life" (general transcendence). The subjects project four specific utopian statements (partial transcendences) in this economic perspective, one of them focused on the total satisfaction of physical-biological needs through the optimal consumption of goods. From this statement, which is immersed in the economic field, ten other statements are derived (sub-partial transcendences) linked, from an economy for life, with full employment, with economic and technical feasibility in productions and with the income of the subjects. Utopias are distorted when they enter the framework of transcendental illusion; in contrast, they make sense in relation to human life when they are based on imaginations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
