“…For instance, Giovanni Botero (1544-1617) defines it thus: "I think that to repute is nothing other than to rethink or to reconsider a matter more profoundly, and that a man of reputation is one whose virtù cannot be easily understood or comprehended and merits to be frequently considered and esteemed; this is what reputation is." 17 The relevant sense of virtù is related to the good functioning of a political community. For instance, Francesco Guicciardini (1483-1540) writes: "Who seeks honour and fame in his native city … by striving to be accounted wise and able, and by rendering good service to his country, is a praiseworthy and useful citizen."…”

“…Botero gives an analysis of how loss of reputation by political leaders is one of the causes of the downfall of states and how establishing the reputation of political leaders is one of the causes of the growth and stability of states. 19 He is also aware that distributive justice with respect to the reputation in which citizens are held is one of the origins of the reputation of political leaders, because rewarding merit with honors supports virtuous actions. 20 Restricting the sense of virtue to political aims, however, leads to apparent tensions between what political virtue demands and what ethical virtue demands.…”

Being thought of well by others seems to belong to our basic social needs. And social esteem seems to be somehow connected with how well we think about ourselvesalthough the exact nature of this connection may be far from obvious. Perhaps these issues were never entirely absent from ethical and political thought; but in the early modern period they were debated in a particularly vivacious and illuminating way. The early moderns were sensitive to how our everyday dynamics of esteem and selfesteem can be distorted-be it due to the pleasure experienced in denigrating others, or to the misleading workings of imagination and the emotions, or to the inclination toward duplicity and manipulation, or to the negative effects of comparing personal achievements and competing for status. Many early moderns connected conceptions of justified esteem and self-esteem with considerations about what is naturally good for beings of our kind. According to their views concerning justified esteem, striving for excellence in what is naturally good may still be a comparative and competitive matter, but the effects of comparison and competition may be more acceptable for everyone. This is so because such excellence will have socially beneficial, and hence widely welcome, effects. Also, everyone may be capable of realizing a moderate degree of natural goodness, thereby offering the possibility of acquiring esteem and self-esteem in a non-competitive, and perhaps even co-operative way.Of course, views about the nature of natural goodness diverged, ranging from theories of natural rights to accounts of what is good in personal relations to accounts of what is good in the life of a political community. Hence, it is no surprise that views concerning the nature and extent of the ensuing esteem-related duties also diverged widely, and these approaches are worth exploring in some detail. The articles collected in this special issue offer a series of case studies. The source materials covered here stem from the sixteenth century and the "long" seventeenth century (including the first third of the eighteenth century). This is not meant to imply that the later periods of the eighteenth century do not offer much that is of interest. The contrary is the case, as fascinating material by

“…Bonet (1998), expresa que para 1950, los animales de Bolívar llegaban por trochas y caminos a la Feria de Medellín, agotados, para ser vendidos como ganado flaco o de ceba. Los fenómenos asociados al clima, generaron la trashumancia de los bovinos, es así como según Botero (2010), en la región Momposina (Bolívar), es una actividad que aún continúa.…”

En lo metodológico, la investigación tiene un carácter cualitativo, un diseño documental y el método aplicado es deductivoinductivo y analítico -sintético. Las fuentes consultadas son secundarias y corresponden a la historiografía que aborda los siglos XIX, XX y lo transcurrido del siglo XXI. Se concluye que las organizaciones ganaderas han sido conservadoras respecto al riesgo. La ganadería presenta riesgos del entorno y operativos. La historiografía clásica muestra a la ganadería como una actividad ec onómica que se encuentra muy ligada al poder y establece, de distintas formas y fuentes, la asociación entre la actividad ganadera y la política. Otros autores, desde lo económico y administrativo, analizan al ganadero como empresario más que como terrateniente, expresión muy ligada al poder. Palabras clave:Colombia -organizaciones ganaderasriesgopoder -empresarios. JEL: M ABSTRACT This research has as a main aim to identify livestock organizations and social actors linked to the Colombian livestock sector based on risk and power relations using data sources from the economic, social and business historiography records. This research was done from a qualitative research perspective using a documentary design through a deductive -inductive and analyticalsynthetic method. Secondary data sources corresponding to the XIX and XX century historiography was used. The findings show that livestock organizations have been conservative regarding risk. Livestock presents environmental and operational risks. It also shows that Classical historiography is closely linked to power and economic demonstrating different forms and sources such as the association of livestock-political activity. Other authors, from the economic and administrative point of view, have also analyzed the ranchers more as entrepreneurs than as landowners, a perspective more linked to highlight power in the region.

“…It was hard to find in it any noble moral norms or lex naturalis (natural law) of doing good according to God's order through free will and ration (Krawczyk 2012). G. Botero has defined the reason of state as definition of measures "with which the state builds, maintains and broadens stable authority" (Botero 1956). Its dimension is defined by long-term process of influencing and shaping of economic factors, political system, authority system, civic awareness and alliance commitments, integration and globalization (Łastawski 2009).…”
