Resumen
El presente trabajo explora el campo de tramas complejas del tratamiento de los conceptos,
especialmente en los límites disciplinares de la Sociología y la Ciencia Política
contemporánea. En un primer momento reconoce y advierte cuáles son las vicisitudes de los
conceptos, es decir cómo se forman y qué aspectos los modalizan, le dan sentido (o se lo
varían) que debemos tener en cuenta al (re)utilizarlos.
En un segundo momento se aboca a los “nuevos” señalamientos para aquellos conceptos que
producto de la irrupción de las sociedades globalizadas, se han convertido en conceptos
itinerantes a escala global trasvasando su lengua original.
Luego, controla ambas tesis en el tratamiento de dos conceptos nodales del siglo XX en la
sociología y politología norteamericana: las vicisitudes del concepto de Control Social y el
carácter itinerante del concepto de Accountability –especialmente en relación con su reciente
acepción Social-.
Por último, se propone avistar aquello que se encuentra en el centro, en primer lugar, del
cruce entre los señalamientos en abstracto y las evidencias empíricas en relación a los
conceptos y, en segundo lugar, poner de relieve las inadvertidas similitudes, diferencias y
usos de los conceptos de Control Social y Accountability Social.
The present work explores the field of complex plots of the treatment of some concepts, specially those that are used in disciplines such as Sociology and contemporary Political Science. First of all, it recognizes and warns about the vicissitudes of the concepts, that is to say, how they are formed and what aspects model them, giving them sense or changing it, aspects that we must consider when we (re) use them. Secondly, it dedicates to analyse the new aspects of concepts, that due to the irruption of globalization, they transform and traspass the boundaries of their original languages. Then, it compares both theses in the use of two central concepts of the XX century North American sociology and politology: the “Social Control” vicissitudes and the itinerant character of the concept Accountability, specially in relation to its new Social meaning. Finally, it proposes to visualize what’s in the core, firstly the crossing of the abstract signals, and the empirical evidence in relation with concepts, and secondly, it remarks the unseen similarities, differences and uses of both Social Control and Social Accountability concepts.
