Abstract

La discusión por la relación entre contabilidad y medio ambiente ha sido poco abordada en nuestropaís. El presente artículo pretende profundizar en esta discusión que implica tener en cuenta elcarácter social, institucional y disciplinar de la contabilidad. Por esta razón, es necesario abordar elpapel del conocimiento y de las disciplinas económicas en la visión y tratamiento de la naturaleza.Se parte de una visión interdisciplinar y crítica de las disciplinas económicas, para llegar a la evaluaciónde lo que ha sido la contabilidad ambiental empresarial. Se concluye que ella ha llevado ala traducción de las tecnologías tradicionales de la contabilidad empresarial y a la legitimación deactividades no ambientalmente amigables a través del discurso y de la información producida.
