Resumen:
Mach?s criticism to Newtonian mechanics triggered Einstein?s first steps towards general relativity. Leibniz had also claimed for the abolition of the absolute space, and a relational reformulation of the laws of mechanics. It will be shown that classical mechanics can be formulated as a relational theory that satisfies Mach?s principle by applying the tools of gauge theories.
