Spanish term

dilema de lo colectivo

Spanish to English Social Sciences Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc. social cooperation
Cuando nuestros intereses, deseos o necesidades particulares producen consecuencias socialmente indeseadas, enfrentamos un dilema de lo colectivo. Cumplir normas sociales, mantener nuestra riqueza ambiental o construir el espacio público de los ciudadanos son ejemplos en los que la cooperación de todos produce resultados socialmente superiores; no obstante, el interés individual se atraviesa con incentivos fuertes para no hacerlo. Es necesario estudiar la riqueza infinita de soluciones que las sociedades han construido, más allá del debate reduccionista entre la capacidad del mercado o del Estado para solucionar los dilemas. Vale la pena subrayar las soluciones de autogobierno, en las que los grupos o comunidades alinean esos intereses individuales y colectivos por su propia cuenta

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
