Abstract: This essay seeks to answer how from the perspective of economic anthropology it could be understood that the economic value of goods is determined to some extent by culture and by the effect of culture created by the capitalist production system in the present: the culture of consumption. In addition, it is stated that within the daily life of this century, it is possible to observe that the value of merchandise is explained by the semiotics behind goods and services. Consequently, the value category ends up charging a different meaning to the one traditionally exposed by classical economists.
