ABSTRACT
A real forest, which seemed mysterious and fascinating to look at from the outside, described and sung about for its beauty by poets, theologians and saints; but there were no maps to try to learn about the inside of that wonderful and very fertile forest, abundant in animals, birds, life and an extraordinary biodiversity. There were only travellers’ stories, some sketches of some ravines encountered by more than one explorer and many legends. Religious organizations, social economy and non-profit organizations have shown down through the centuries that there has always been, and there still is, a place in the economic field for some things other than profit maximization. The life of those who take ideals seriously is a play that takes place between people who produce surplus and are misaligned and who live and change within collective realities that are also changing and that displace them every day.
