Ação coletiva no âmbito da economia solidária e da autogestão

Abstract

This essay reflects on the motivations that lead to collective action in the realm of solidarity economics and self-management, based on the presumption that, in these spheres, collective action is different from that which takes places in the domains of capitalism and that which develops in the social context of traditional relations. In this sense, the purpose of this essay is to explore the theoretical specificities of collective action guided by the principles of solidarity economics and self-management, with an analytical focus on the theory of donation. To do so, it sought to analyze solidarity economics in an articulated and sequential manner, to reveal the constituent elements of self management and the theoretical support for the theory of donation. These considerations indicate that there is much empirical research to do in this field, and such research can contribute to the elaboration of new studies and research about this issue. Key words: solidarity economics, self-management, theory of donation.
