This paper aims to analyze the impact of the dynamic systems techniques (DST) on the recent development of neoclassical Economics. Through the use of a classification of research papers and two models, we study how mainstream economists translate concepts into dynamic formats. The main conclusions are: (i) DST have expanded knowledge in Economics by revealing new types of equilibria and tightening interrelationships among sub-disciplines; (ii) despite this undeniable success, some economists criticize how assumptions and concepts are reduced to technical expressions to ease their mathematical adaptation; and (iii) there is no neutral method to build dynamic models.

Palabras llave : Mathematization; non-traditional dynamic equilibria; the realism of assumptions; mathematical reductionism; Malthusian dynamics.
