Resumen

In recent years, there has been a shift in among Kentucky rural electric cooperatives in regard to their stance on economic development. With this has been the employment of electric cooperative staff to help attract new industries and forge relationships with other local economic development-geared groups to facilitate growth. Cooperative businesses have historically proved their resilience and deep-rooted connections within the communities they serve. In exploring two similar-sized electric cooperatives in Kentucky located in two very different regions of the state, considering socio-economic status, and interviewing key informants with local affiliated economic development groups, it becomes evident that electric cooperatives possess a great potential to serve as a catalyst for economic development within their respective service territories.

Resumen

This study concentrates on the role of cooperatives in Local Economic Development (LED) and the creation of sustainable jobs. In ascertaining this role, it was imperative that the study also examine the participant’s perceptions and attitudes as the drivers in attaining the sustainable livelihoods; where their desire, their beliefs and their perceived social norms are examined. In line with the examination of the participant’s perceptions and attitudes as the drivers in attaining the sustainable livelihoods, we have also identified the drivers or catalyst to really changing the behaviour and/or performance and really taking action. Motivation of this study is that the participants and LED officials will learn from the lessons that are identified. Lessons can be learned from our history in South Africa that through dedication and sustained motivation goals can be realised. Motivation and commitment are therefore important in strengthening the foundations of cooperative development towards job creation; where social capital is the driver of commitment and motivation and should be promoted as such. Through the cooperation that is inherent in cooperatives people pull together towards realising their dreams. The sustainable jobs are however not attainable at this stage of cooperative development but strong foundations are however being built to realise these goals in the near future. Unemployment is a big problem that policy makers are looking for solutions to, and hence the development of policy measures like the Cooperative Policy to address poverty through creation of cooperatives. These cooperatives collectively benefit the members and create a platform for mutual cooperation. Self-motivation and ‘Ubuntu’ need to be ingrained more in our culture and find a ‘new meaning’. There is a role for social capital and the unity that is within ‘Ubuntu’ to really be used as the undoubted asset that it is. Social capital can be seen as the driver of commitment and motivation. This can also be seen in the Mutual Incentives Theory’ (MIT) of motivations to participate developed by Birchall and Simmons, as meaningful participation can be motivated by three variables. These variables are shared goals, shared values and sense of community. These three variables are all integrated in social capital; where social capital could be seen as the common denominator. Such conclusions about the importance of social capital in driving meaningful participation in cooperatives should be widely acknowledged. The promotion of social capital in all its forms should be wide spread and it should form part of the basis for solutions to cooperative development.

Resumen

Adopting the lens of diverse economies theory, this thesis explores the role of democratic praxis in supporting a shift from the perceived dominance and homogeneity of capitalism towards performative post-capitalist praxes of economic diversity and interdependence. Through a reflexive account of an 18-month ethnographic study it makes four contributions to knowledge. First, that democracy in worker cooperatives constitutes interconnected ways of thinking, being and acting. Central to this praxis of democracy is an understanding of the organisation as a conversation and product of individual-collective alignment that, when supported by and expressed through democratic practices, create spaces for ongoing and constitutive deliberation. Second, that this praxis of democracy lays the epistemological and ontological grounds necessary for the emergence of post-capitalist worlds. These grounds constitute the development of an anti-essentialist position, post-fantasmatic and weak theoretical stance, and learning to be affected vision on the world. Third, that these grounds and democratic praxis itself enable ongoing thinking-actions of re-appropriation and negotiation, through which members deconstruct capitalist homogeneity, foster economic diversity and interdependence, and cultivate post-capitalist subjectivities. Finally, the thesis contends that these understandings were enriched by reflexive engagement with the emotional and relational experience of research, and the epistemological and ontological congruence of research methodology, theoretical framework and organisational practice. Through the first three contributions the thesis adds a UK perspective to a narrow body of empirical literature exploring direct democracy in small worker cooperatives. More specifically, it adds to debates on the purpose and practice of workplace democracy in relation to the development of diverse economies thinking and practice. By reframing feelings of anxiety, frustration and contradiction as analytical starting points, the fourth methodological contribution furthers understandings of the role of emotion in organisational ethnography. Beyond these contributions, this thesis opens opportunities for shared learning both between researchers, and cooperative practitioners. In relation to the former it brings to the fore the ethical challenges of researching with close-knit communities and highlights the need for spaces of silence and slowness in maintaining a researcher’s ethical sensibilities. In relation to the latter, it offers an account of the imperfections, joys and struggles of democratic praxis, and makes visible both the possibility and messy reality of post-capitalist worlds. Most significantly, it reframes the contradictions inherent to cooperatives’ dual social-economic characteristic, not as risks of degeneration, but as creative moments that help worker-members to constantly reassess their practice, and their place within, against and beyond the capitalist economy.

Resumen

Industries related to agricultural cooperatives record some of the highest injury rates in the U.S. Therefore, agricultural cooperatives are highly motivated to invest in occupational health and safety (OHS). This thesis examines the economic efficiency of OHS investments at agricultural cooperatives and identifies cooperative characteristics leading to greater economic efficiency of OHS investments. A multiple input-output data envelopment analysis (DEA) is used to estimate technical efficiency. The effects of cooperative characteristics on the efficiency of OHS investments are estimated using ordinary least squares, censored regression, truncated regression, and the Simar and Wilson (2007) bootstrap procedure. Results show that the mean technical efficiency score was 0.833. Furthermore, a cooperative?s annual insurance premia has a significant, negative relationship with technical efficiency. In contrast, the experience levels of a cooperative?s top safety person and top managerial person and a location?s total workers employed have significant, positive relationships with efficiency in all estimated models.

Resumen

Bibliography: pages 608-625.
This study is a sociological analysis of participatory-democratic organisations in 'third world' contexts. Firstly, it assesses the degree of participatory democracy in each enterprise studied. Secondly, it explores whether cooperative development is a process. Thirdly, it assesses the applicability of existing theory in the field for organisations in 'third world' contexts. The data used is predominantly qualitative, though quantitative information is utilised. Qualitative data is gathered from in-depth interviews using semi-structured questionnaires, observation and the examination of primary sources. Empirical information is analysed in the light of theoretical constructs reviewed and practical constraints identified by other researchers in the field. The key construct is an 'ideal-type' participatory-democratic organisation. Significant findings include the following: (a) cooperatives in 'third world' contexts are formed and joined primarily for material reasons; (b) specific constraints include a severe lack of basic education among cooperators, relationships of dependency between co-ops and service organisations, and a 'survival' consciousness among cooperative members; (c) the nature of relationships between cooperatives and service organisations have significant implications for co-op development; (d) there is a relationship between organisational structures and viability as an economic unit and (e) members in different positions in the enterprise have different conceptions of cooperation. The study concludes that cooperative development is a process involving different stages characterised by different degrees of participation in decision-making, viability, organisational development and cooperative consciousness.

Resumen

The volatile economic world of agriculture in the past two decades has had a significant impact on agribusinesses. Among these agribusinesses are farm supply cooperatives. Consolidation of farm supply cooperative stores could help to correct many inefficiencies which they face. This research attempted to create a model which would help cooperative managers consider consolidation of cooperative stores or product lines as a method to correct inefficiencies and lower the costs of doing business. A microcomputer based linear programming model which simulates the product/trade flows of a farm supply cooperative trade area was developed. This model simulates consumer behavior by minimizing the net cost (purchase price plus cost of transport) of purchasing agricultural supplies to the patron. Using the simulated product flows, the financial situation of the trade area was presented. The model was tested by analyzing several consolidation scenarios based on the costs, prices, and asset capacities of a sample trade area. Consolidation of the feed and fertilizer product lines into one location was found to be a very successful cost saving scenario for the sample trade area.

Resumen

Thesis (M.Dev.) --University of Limpopo, 2011
The introduction and establishment of co-operatives by the State was for purposes of fighting and alleviating poverty through creating jobs, particularly in the rural areas,which were mostly neglected by the previous apartheid State. In order to deal with these social ills and malady, the new democratic government introduced cooperatives to mitigate these challenges. These good intensions are often countered by lack of commitment by State officials and reluctance from other institutions to assist co-operatives to be catalysts in fighting poverty and unemployment in South Africa, despite their noble intentions. In other developed countries, co-operatives are given serious attention, not only because they are catalysts in poverty alleviation, but because they can make huge economic interventions with regard to economic growth and economic development. The intention of this study was to make an assessment of whether or not agricultural co-operatives have any economic impact on women in the rural areas of Polokwane Municipality, since their inception as entities for local economic development. The study also assesses whether or not the State supports these entities in a variety of forms. For this purpose, four co-operatives have been used as a Case Study,namely, Mashashane Agricultural Co-operative at Ga-Mashashane; Phegelelo Agricultural Co-operative at Ga-Thaba village; Mothiba Agricultural Co-operative at Ga-Mothiba; and Itireleng Agricultural Co-operative at Matamanyane village in Moletjie

How do cooperative businesses influence economic and community development in practice? Recent calls for a "new economy" argue that co-ops and other kinds of distributed ownership should be capable of transforming neoliberal market relations into place-based, community-centered, and nonextractive modes of production and exchange. In direct contrast to these hopes about cooperatives, my dissertation on electric cooperatives in the United States shows that there can be little, if any, contradiction between community ownership and neoliberal market-based business practices. Therefore, the history of electric co-ops suggests that co-op advocates should exercise caution in their enthusiasm. My dissertation is a combined historical and qualitative study of a nation-wide network of electric cooperatives that have existed in the United States for nearly 80 years. Through historical research on the conception, funding, and implementation of these cooperatives, I explore how they were designed originally in service of rural industrial development and national growth as a solution to crisis during the precarious years of the Great Depression. Questioning how this orientation restricted these co-ops' abilities to serve as community-focused institutions, I argue that the 1930s was a tipping point in American history when federal investment in rural electrification could have constructed a vast network of local democratic institutions, but didn't. However, in the interest of understanding how electric co-ops can yet be a transformative force for communities, I also conducted case studies of three co-ops where members recently pushed for changes in leadership and agenda. In my case study research, I examine how electric co-ops can in fact be a powerful venue for local democracy and community transformation; for this potential to be realized, though, co-op members must re-envision the co-op not as a single-issue business, but as a community institution in a broader political struggle. In studying these movements, my dissertation highlights the importance of focusing on the quality of democratic practice in co-ops, and ultimately asks whether and under what conditions the electric co-op model is capable of becoming a transformative economic influence.

Resumen

El proceso de inclusión financiera ha permitido la expansión de servicios financieros a cada vez más lugares enfocados en buscar el desarrollo. Desde el punto de vista económico, el sistema financiero contribuye de forma útil en la economía a través del aporte en las decisiones de ahorro e inversión de un país y su funcionalidad valida el crecimiento económico. Por ello, resulta importante que la estructura financiera sea sólida e inclusiva para ser sostenible en el tiempo, ya que en presencia de fallas de mercado pueden crearse barreras subjetivas y objetivas de acceso a la inclusión financiera. En este contexto, el presente estudio evalúa si el componente inclusión financiera influye en el crecimiento económico en presencia de cooperativas de créditos. Considerando la literatura existente sobre el vínculo entre el crecimiento económico y el sistema financiero, la investigación considera que las cooperativas tienen influencia en la medida que tienen propias particularidades sociales y funcionan como mecanismo para expandir la inclusión financiera. En ese sentido, este trabajo se basa en la teoría de inclusión financiera para comprender el rol de las cooperativas y su efecto en el crecimiento económico.
The financial inclusion process has allowed the expansion of financial services to more and more places focused on seeking development. From the economic point of view, the financial system contributes in a useful way in the economy through the report on the saving and investment decisions of a country and its valid functionality economic growth. Therefore, it is important that the financial structure is solid and inclusive to be sustainable over time, since in the presence of market failures, subjective and objective barriers to access to financial inclusion can be created. In this context, the present study evaluates whether the financial inclusion component influences economic growth in the presence of credit cooperatives. Considering the existing literature on the link between economic growth and the financial system, the research considers that cooperatives have influence to the extent that they have their own social peculiarities and mechanisms as a mechanism to expand financial inclusion. In this sense, this work is based on the theory of financial inclusion to understand the role of cooperatives and their effect on economic growth.

This search, whose title is "The growth and socio-economic development of agribusiness cooperatives in the West of Parana State", presents a new methodology for analysis of cooperatives. Considering that these developments differ from any business because it was there is of principles and doctrines aspects that distinguish them from other companies, especially those related to the inter-cooperation and concern for the community. It arose from the assumption that "It is likely that the agribusiness cooperatives in the west of Parana state are suitable for strategic management of inter-cooperation for development, generating economic and social growth and contributing to regional economic development." The first analysis examined the relationships of inter-cooperation that these cooperatives have with each other. Subsequently, we examined their growth, considering the Gross Sales, Fixed Assets, Equity, increasing the number of cooperative members and employees, increase within the last ten years. Then there is the efficiency to manage the Capital, to calculate the Economic Value Added, to evaluate whether the cooperatives add value or destroy the capital of its members and financial independence, to know whether they have sufficient capitalization to cope with new investments without compromising its operating results. Finally, we sought whether the cooperatives contribute to the growth of the municipalities where they are located. With all these perspectives of analysis, it is concluded that the cooperatives should get tested for inter increase and improvements in its management to do with the new requirements of market competition, satisfying serve their members in a better way and contribute more to the growth of the communities in which they are inserted.
Esta pesquisa, cujo título é O Crescimento e Desenvolvimento Sócio-Econômico das Cooperativas Agroindustriais do Oeste do Paraná , apresenta uma nova metodologia de análise de cooperativas. Considerando-se que estes empreendimentos diferem de uma empresa qualquer, pois existem os aspectos de princípios e doutrinas que as distinguem de outras empresas, principalmente aos que se referem à intercooperação e à preocupação com a comunidade. Partiu-se da hipótese de que É provável que as cooperativas agroindustriais do Oeste do Paraná estejam adequadas a uma gestão estratégica de intercooperação para se desenvolverem, gerando crescimento econômico e social e contribuindo para o desenvolvimento econômico regional . A análise examinou primeiramente as relações de intercooperação que essas cooperativas mantêm entre si. Posteriormente, examinou-se o crescimento delas, considerando o Faturamento Bruto, o Ativo Permanente, o Patrimônio Líquido, o aumento do número de cooperados e de funcionários, no período dos últimos dez anos. Em seguida, verificou-se a eficiência que possuem ao administrar o Capital Social, calculando-se o Valor Econômico Agregado, para avaliar se as referidas cooperativas agregam valor ou destroem o capital de seus cooperados e a independência financeira, conhecer se possuem capitalização suficiente a fim de fazer frente aos novos investimentos sem comprometer demasiadamente seus resultados operacionais. E por fim, buscou-se saber se essas mesmas cooperativas contribuem com o crescimento dos municípios onde estão localizadas suas sedes. Com todas essas perspectivas de análise, concluiu-se que as cooperativas analisadas devem buscar aumento de intercooperação e melhorias na sua gestão para fazerem frente às novas exigências de competitividade no mercado, satisfazer melhor a seus cooperados e contribuir mais com o crescimento das comunidades em que estão inseridas.

Resumen

The economic crisis has created a major concern in developedcountries for control of social risks with negative effects on growth and this problem can be approached from the perspective of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Thus, CSR is seen as an entrepreneurial attitude aimed at promoting social, economic and environmental purposes while guarantying competitiveness in the international market. Thus, social economy can contribute to sustainable development, economic and social cohesion, to promote productive and income distribution, to ensure employment and equality of opportunities. The purpose of this study is to have an influence onthe role that taxation plays in the area of incentive policies related to social economy and very prominently manifested in the legal status of cooperatives. The approach aims to provide proposals on tax regulation of cooperatives taking the perspective of the international context and the size of the sector in countries like Spain and Peru in order to encourage cooperative social responsibility. Indeed, the importance of providing a legal and fiscal framework to promote their internationalization connects providentially with the principles that govern the cooperative action. We consider that it is essential, from the perspective of sustainable development and cooperatives’social responsibility, to take into account in the tax regime applicable criteria that can be justified on constitutional principles, the general interest of society or internationalization economic activity. Also, there could be other positive effects in the area of Latin America, such as decreasing tax evasion and the formalization of at least a portion of the informal sector of the economy, including the real impulse to CSR.
La crisis económica ha generado una mayor preocupación en los países desarrollados por el control de los riesgos sociales con efectos negativos sobre el crecimiento y este problema puede abordarse desde la perspectiva de la Responsabilidad Social de las Empresas (RSE). De este modo, la RSE se observa como la actitud empresarial dirigida a promover fines sociales, económicos y ambientales a la vez que garantizar la competitividad en el mercado internacional. Así, la economía social puede contribuir al desarrollo sostenible, a la cohesión económica y social, a fomentar el tejido productivo y la distribución de la renta, a favorecer el empleo y a procurar la igualdadde oportunidades. El presente estudio pretende incidir en el papel que la fiscalidad desempeña en el área de la incentivación de políticas relacionadas con la economía social y que muy destacadamente se manifiesta en el régimen jurídico de las cooperativas. El enfoque adoptado persigue aportar propuestas para la regulación fiscal de las cooperativas considerando el contexto internacional y la dimensión del sector en países como España y Perú en aras de incentivar la llamada «responsabilidad social cooperativa». En efecto, la importancia de ofrecer un marco legal y fiscal de promoción de su internacionalización se cohonesta de forma providencial con los principios que gobiernan la acción cooperativista. Consideramos que es indispensable, desde la perspectiva del desarrollo sostenible y la responsabilidad social de las cooperativas, que se tome en consideración en el régimen fiscal aplicable criterios que puedan justificarse en los principios constitucionales, el interés general de la sociedad o de internacionalización de la actividad económica. Asimismo, podrían conseguirse otros efectos positivos en el área de América Latina como la disminución de la evasión fiscal y la formalización de al menos una parte del sector informal de la economía, e incluso el impulso a la auténtica RSE.

Resumen

A Tese visa a analisar a organização de catadores de resíduos recicláveis, tendo como quadro de referência a teoria institucional. Autores ligados ao movimento da economia solidária propõem a cooperativa popular como modelo de organização capaz de emancipar o trabalhador, ainda que operando em contexto capitalista. Esta tese parte da premissa de que a organização dos catadores em Redes de Economia Solidária não é de fato uma via para sua inclusão social. Para isto, optou-se pela análise da inserção de cooperativas de catadores na indústria de reciclagem da embalagem PET. Desse modo, a pergunta motivadora desta Tese é: como e por que está ocorrendo a inserção dos catadores na cadeia de reciclagem da embalagem PET? Esta problemática foi analisada sob o intrincado ponto de vista dos multistakeholders, considerados como atores específicos que interagem no campo organizacional da indústria de reciclagem. Especialmente, avaliam-se duas experiências cooperativistas organizadas em Redes de Economia Solidária: a Rede Cata Sampa, localizada em São Paulo e a Rede Cata Unidos, localizada em Minas Gerais. Procurou-se comparar a estruturação e formação destas duas redes construídas a partir da Coopamare (SP) e Asmare (MG). Por meio de uma abordagem exploratória de pesquisa descritivo-qualitativa, desenvolveu-se um estudo de caso único com várias unidades de análise (cadeia produtiva, organizações não governamentais, cooperativas de catadores, setor público, e consumidores). Foram utilizadas múltiplas fontes de evidências e triangulação de técnicas qualitativas, tais como, análise documental, entrevistas semi-estruturadas e observação participante. Os resultados mostram que há uma configuração estrutural em que as cooperativas estão integradas a um campo organizacional presidido pela lógica da acumulação a indústria de reciclagem e ficam submetidas a pressões isomórficas. Ao contrário de se enquadrarem na categoria de excluídos, os catadores são trabalhadores úteis e fundamentais para a indústria de reciclagem. Na verdade, tais catadores vivem um processo de exclusão e inclusão social, onde suas vidas são permeadas por zonas de vulnerabilidades, fragilidades e precariedades. Neste sentido, ao considerar o campo da indústria de reciclagem como uma estrutura social, os catadores passam a ser vistos como o grupo desafiante do campo.
The thesis analyzes the organization of collectors men and women, usually homeless people, organized to collect \"useful\" garbage that could be recycled using the institutional theory framework. Authors from the solidarity economics movement, propose popular cooperatives as a model of organization saying that it would be able to emancipate the worker, despite the fact that this workforce operates within the Capitalist system. Therefore, it uses the assumption that the organization of collectors in Solidarity Economy Networks is not in fact a way for their social inclusion. For this thesis, it was decide to analyses the inclusion of cooperatives of collectors in the industry of recycling of PET packaging. Thus the question motivating this thesis is: \"how and why the insertion of the collectors in the PET packaging recycling industry is occurring? This issue was examined under the complex point of view of the multistakeholders, considered as specific actors in the organizational field of the recycling. It especially evaluates two experiences of cooperatives organized in Solidarity Economy Networks: the Rede Cata Sampa, based in Sao Paulo and Rede Cata Unidos, located in Minas Gerais. The researcher sought to compare the structure and formation of Solidarity Economy networks built by Coopamare (SP) and Asmare (MG). Through a descriptive and exploratory qualitative research, a of case study was developed with several units of analysis (supply chain, non-governmental organizations, cooperatives of collectors, public sector, and consumers). Multiple sources of evidence and triangulation of qualitative techniques were used, like documentary analysis, semi-structured interviews and participant observation. The results showed that there is a structural configuration in which the cooperatives are integrated to an organization field chained by the logic of accumulation - the recycling industry - and are subject to isomorphic pressures. However, conversely to the category of excluded group, the collectors of recyclable materials are considered useful and key employees for the recycling industry. In fact, these collectors live a double process of social exclusion and inclusion, in which their lives are permeated by areas of vulnerability, fragility and precariousness. Accordingly, in considering the scope of the recycling industry as a social structure, the collectors can be seen as the challenging group of the field.

Resumen

Cette thèse de doctorat étudie la durabilité des exploitations agricoles en examinant la relation entre les composantes de la durabilité et le rôle de l'organisation des filières agricoles sur la durabilité des exploitations.La contribution de cette thèse est double. Premièrement, la thèse prend en compte la dimension temporelle dans l'analyse de la durabilité des exploitations agricoles. Elle montre que l'évolution dans le temps des efforts environnementaux a un impact sur la performance économique des exploitations en utilisant des données au niveau des exploitations d’élevage en France.Deuxièmement, en se concentrant sur le rôle des coopératives agricoles dans le développement de pratiques durables, la thèse montre que différents types d'organisation dans les filières peuvent avoir des impacts significatifs sur la durabilité des exploitations. La revue de la littérature offre une contribution en fournissant une analyse critique de la littérature théorique et empirique. La principale conclusion de cette étude est de mettre en lumière l'importance de l’hétérogénéité entre et au sein des coopératives. La thèse montre également, en étudiant des données originales d’exploitant dans sept pays de l'UE, que le choix des coopératives comme principal mode de commercialisation peut avoir un effet négatif sur l'adoption de la certification biologique
This PhD studies farm sustainability by investigating the relation between sustainability components and the role of supply chain organisation on overall farm sustainability. The contribution of the PhD is twofold. First, the PhD takes into account the time dimension in the analysis of farm sustainability. It shows that time evolution of environmental efforts matters in farm economic performance by using farm level data from French livestock farms. Secondly, by focusing on the role of agricultural cooperatives in the development of sustainable practices, it shows thatdifferent types of organisational arrangement in agri-food supply chains may have significant impacts on farm sustainability. The literature review study fills the gap in scientific knowledge by providing a critical analysis on theoretical and empirical literature. It shows the diverging forms of impacts of cooperatives depending contextual and sectorial dynamics. The main conclusion of this study is shedding light on the importance of heterogeneities between and within cooperatives The PhD also shows, by studying original farm data from seven EU countries, that choosing cooperatives as the main marketing channel may negatively affect the adoption of organic certification

Texto completo

Resumen

This is exploratory research that has examined the efficacy of agricultural marketing cooperatives in the UK as a mechanism to redress power imbalances when faced with highly consolidated downstream markets. This issue would appear to be of particular significance in the light of the continued UK government emphasis on the cooperative action as a means of supporting farm gate prices following the deregulation of European Markets. This research draws upon, and examines the possible linkages between two key bodies of literature, Power Dependency Theory and literature based on the issue of common property and the free-rider problem and presents, through the exploratory framework, the idea that cooperative success is contingent upon an iterative relationship between leverage and cohesion (Emerson, 1962: Olson, 1965). This understanding is used to examine the three diverse marketing cooperatives, and findings from which suggest that cooperatives in current market structures are unable to improve their leverage position over the longer term. The research also suggests that there is not necessarily an iterative relationship between cohesiveness and improved leverage. What is apparent is that Cooperatives endure because they offer other types of benefits to farmers and currently play an important role is sustaining a failing farming sector.

Resumen

ABSTRACT Title: Corporate Social Responsibility in Cooperative Enterprises: Folksam, Coompanion, HSB and Coop Konsum. Level: Final assignment for Bachelor’ degree in Business Administration Author: Rachel Mpambara Supervisor: Maria Fregidou-Malama Examinator: Akmal Hyder Date: 2012 - May Aim: The Aim of this study is to investigate what CSR is and how it is applied in cooperative companies such as: Folksam, Coompanion, HSB and Coop Konsum. Method: Qualitative case studies in cooperative companies were performed during this study. The research is based on interviews with six employees from the four companies. Results and Conclusions: My study shows that Coop Konsum, Folksam, HSB and Coompanion work with CSR activities to have a good image and trust from members and customers. The companies perform CSR activities such as taking responsibility for members and employees allowing them the right to participate and decide, environmental activities like making sure that suppliers follow environmental requirements, satisfy customers’ needs for example make sure that the customers get all important information they need to start their own business, get involved in ethical and social activities like no discrimination issues or helping poor people. The companies face challenges in the future but they will continue to work with CSR, to focus more on environmental and issues concerning the society. My conclusion is that CSR activities are found in the value specification of cooperatives therefore one cannot separate CSR from cooperative companies. Suggestions for Further research: The main limitation of the study is that I conducted six interviews with employees in the four companies. A deeper understanding would demand to perform more investigations, like doing interview with both employees and managers, in order to get more information in this study.

Resumen

The purpose of this dissertation is to challenge the predominant theories of the firm in economics by demonstrating that the firm can only be properly understood if the importance of cooperation based on trust and loyalty, and the ability of the firm to achieve that cooperation by influencing the social foundations of behaviour, is appreciated. Chapter 1 demonstrates that neglecting this ‘social nature’ of the firm renders the predominant theories incomplete and incompatible, with contract-based theories clinging to a rigid model of behaviour and competence-based theories failing to develop the social foundations of knowledge. The second chapter constructs a theory of the firm that rectifies these shortcomings by maintaining that the firm fulfils its purpose of developing and applying productive knowledge by achieving cooperation, which, along with the dual function of achieving coordination, involves a combination of organisational structures and organisational culture. In Chapter 3, this theory reveals that, contrary to deterministic views on organisation and economic development, a range of organisational forms are possible for any given technology or culture, and that organisation in fact shapes technology and culture. In Chapter 4, the dissertation shows that, contrary to the predominant theories of the firm, cooperative firms may have an inherent advantage in achieving cooperation based on trust and loyalty, and in maintaining that cooperation while also achieving the coordination required for advanced technologies. Although this ability may be suppressed by the prevailing institutional environment, the case of Mondragón, discussed in Chapter 5, demonstrates that it can be activated by innovations such as cooperative groups and ‘second-tier coops’. Although Mondragón’s success has been attributed to the uniquely cooperative traits of Basque culture (as opposed to its structural innovations), Chapter 6 demonstrates through primary and secondary research that Mondragón has in fact been used as model across the globe.

This dissertation research takes an ethnographic perspective on competing notions of "fairness" in the first vertically-integrated garment production chain in the world that is certified as fair trade. In sharp contrast to the straightforward images of social justice that are so common on the consumer end of fair trade, the dissertation demonstrates that relations of fair trade production, distribution, and consumption are complicated by ideological disjunctures, by different experiences of work and labor, by unequal access to capital and political opportunity, by asymmetrical power, and ultimately by disparate concepts of economic justice. Organized as a commodity chain analysis, this dissertation is based on sixteen months of multi-sited, ethnographic research in Nicaragua, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), with four separate fair trade organizations: a faith-based NGO from North Carolina called the Center for Sustainable Development, a well-known Michigan-based fair trade retailer called Clean Clothes Organics, and two Nicaraguan producer organizations, including a women's industrial sewing cooperative (The Fair Trade Zone, which is the first worker-owned organization in the world to gain free trade zone customs certification), and an industrial cotton spinning plant called Genesis. The research shows that, from the standpoint of production and distribution, conflicts frequently emerge over the terms, conditions, and meanings of labor, business contracts, extra-contractual relations, participation in decision-making, and the definition of roles. Producers, moreover, often have no alternative but to accept the terms of more powerful groups under duress of poverty. Theoretically speaking, this dissertation contributes to an understanding of alternative economic formations, including fair trade and cooperatives. In this vein, I argue that the idea of fair trade as an "alternative" to conventional trade is a problematic rhetorical move that tends to obscure the fact that all aspects of trade--production, distribution, and consumption--are not only inherently political, they are also riven with the complications of mediating between disparate cultural meanings, social positionalities, and political, economic, and social inequality. I recommend revisioning the relationship between the economy, the state, and various spheres of society in light of the insights of substantivist economics, feminist political economy, and ethnography.

Resumen

As cooperativas agropecuárias são representativas dentro do cooperativismo e do agronegócio brasileiro. O ramo agropecuário possui 23% do total de cooperativas brasileiras (OCB, 2010), com participação considerável em inúmeras cadeias do agronegócio. Apesar da importância dessas organizações, com as mudanças que ocorreram nas últimas décadas na economia brasileira e mundial, como abertura econômica, menor aporte financeiro do estado às cooperativas agropecuárias e internacionalização dos mercados, muitas dessas organizações têm apresentado dificuldade de se manterem no mercado. As cooperativas agropecuárias tradicionais, conforme descreve Cook (1995), possuem os seus direitos de propriedade difusos, gerando problemas de governança (carona, horizonte, portfólio, controle e custos de influência), causando conflitos na organização cooperativa. De acordo com a intensidade dos problemas mencionados, podem levar à liquidação do empreendimento cooperativo. O Rio Grande do Sul apresenta-se como um dos estados onde o cooperativismo teve sua gênese. Diante do exposto, o trabalho teve como objetivo verificar a presença e a intensidade dos problemas oriundos dos direitos de propriedade difusos, bem como analisar e discutir as estratégias empregadas pelas cooperativas agropecuárias do Rio Grande do Sul e presentes na literatura para minimizar esses problemas. Verificou-se que o problema mais intenso nas cooperativas agropecuárias do estado é o do horizonte, sendo seguindo pelo problema do carona, de portfólio, de controle e custos de influência. Constatou-se que, em geral, as cooperativas que têm os “grãos” como principal atividade de negócio apresentam maior intensidade do problema do horizonte e carona que o grupo das demais cooperativas. As cooperativas agropecuárias do estado apresentam um grande número de estratégias e mecanismos para minimizar os problemas oriundos dos direitos de propriedade difusos, diferindo entre os diferentes grupos de cooperativas. No entanto, a ausência de estratégias para mitigar os problemas em algumas cooperativas, aumenta a incidência dos problemas. Os novos modelos organizacionais de cooperativas podem ser uma forma de minimizar os problemas de governança das cooperativas agropecuárias do Rio Grande do Sul.
The agriculture cooperatives are representative within Brazilian cooperativism and agribusiness. The agricultural line of business detains 23% of the total of Brazilian cooperatives (OCB, 2010), with a considerable participation in several chains of agribusiness. Despite the importance of these organizations, with the changes that took place in the last decade in the Brazilian and the world’s economy, such as the opening of economy, the diminishing of financial support from the government to the agricultural cooperatives and the internationalization of the market, many organizations such as these have been showing difficulties to keep themselves in the market. The traditional agricultural cooperatives, as Cook describes (1995), have their ownership rights diffused, creating governance issues (“free ride”, horizon, portfolio, control and influence costs), causing conflicts in the cooperative organization. According to the intensity of the issues mentioned above, they can liquidate the cooperative enterprise. Rio Grande do Sul is one of the states where cooperativism had its genesis. Considering what has been presented so far, the goal of this work was to verify the presence and intensity of the issues stemming from the diffused ownership rights, as well as analyze and discuss the strategies used by the agricultural cooperatives of Rio Grande do Sul and that are present in the literature in order to minimize these problems. It was verified that the most intense problem in the agricultural cooperatives in the state is the one related to “horizon”, followed by the “free ride” problem, the portfolio, the control and the influence costs ones. It was also verified that the cooperatives which have “grains” as their main business activity present a greater intensity of the “horizon” and the “free ride” problems, compared to the group of the other cooperatives. The state’s agricultural cooperatives have a great number of strategies and mechanisms to minimize the issues stemming from the diffused ownership rights, differing amongst the different cooperative groups. The lack of strategies to minimize the problems in some cooperatives increases the incidence of these issues. The new organizational models of the cooperatives can be a way of minimizing the governance problems of the agricultural cooperatives of Rio Grande do Sul.

The growth of unemployment, together with the changes in the labor market and their own economic organization in Brazil and worldwide, is triggering a strong process of expansion of new forms of work and production organization. The Solidarity Economy has been widely presented and discussed, both in academia and in the institutional environment, as a possible alternative to unemployment and job insecurity, and have the cooperative movement as an important tool in this process. The cooperative garbage collectors, like other members, working for the same ideals and united by the same goals, directing its activities to meet their personal and financial needs, and the appreciation of the work. In this sense, the objective of this study is to discuss the role of labor unions in promoting solidarity economy, from a case study conducted by the Badameiros Cooperative of Feira de Santana (COOBAFS), identifying that economic and social benefits this organization provided to their members. An analytical survey was conducted, conducted in the form of a case study with a qualitative approach. The results showed that the initiative despite facing problems related to the absence of external supporters and local government, has managed to maintain its continuity over time, fairly ensuring the survival of its members which, in most cases, receive monthly up to one minimum wage They are women and have not finished elementary level. It is concluded that the initiative has contributed to enable the withdrawal of its public economic marginalization and precarious spaces and working conditions, but still need to take significant steps to ensure that these better quality of living conditions and health, which It could be solved if there were in the local community, effective support from public authorities, in promoting solidarity economy, through projects that congregassem support to recyclers, which reveal a niche market to be explored in the city, reserved for political neglect
O crescimento do desemprego, juntamente com as modificações no mercado de trabalho e na própria organização econômica no Brasil e no mundo, está desencadeando um forte processo de expansão de novas formas de organização do trabalho e da produção. A Economia Solidária vem sendo amplamente apresentada e discutida, tanto no meio acadêmico como no ambiente institucional, como uma possível alternativa ao desemprego e à precariedade do trabalho, e tem o cooperativismo como um importante instrumento neste processo. Os catadores de lixo cooperativados, assim como outros cooperados, trabalham em prol dos mesmos ideais e unidos pelos mesmos objetivos, direcionando suas atividades para a satisfação das suas necessidades financeiras e pessoais, e da valorização do trabalho. Nesse sentido, o objetivo desse estudo é discutir o papel das cooperativas de trabalho na promoção da Economia Solidária, a partir de um estudo de caso realizado junto à Cooperativa de Badameiros de Feira de Santana (COOBAFS), identificando que benefícios econômicos e sociais esta organização proporcionou a seus associados. Foi realizada uma pesquisa analítica, conduzida sob a forma de um estudo de caso, com abordagem qualitativa. Os resultados demonstraram que a iniciativa apesar de enfrentar problemas relacionados à ausência de apoiadores externos e do governo local, vem conseguindo manter sua continuidade ao longo dos tempos, garantindo razoavelmente a sobrevida de seus cooperados que, em sua maioria, recebem mensalmente até um salário mínimo, são mulheres e possuem o nível fundamental incompleto. Conclui-se que a iniciativa tem contribuído para possibilitar a retirada de seu público da marginalização econômica e do precarização de espaços e condições de trabalho, mas ainda precisa avançar de modo significativo para garantir a esses melhores condições de qualidade de vida e saúde, o que poderia ser resolvido, se houvesse na comunidade local, apoio efetivo das entidades públicas, na promoção da economia solidária, por meio de projetos que congregassem o apoio aos recicladores, que revelam um nicho de mercado a ser explorado no município, reservado ao descaso político

This work is dissertational result of a procedure of investigation, description and analysis of a case study. To this end, the object of research focuses on the relationship developed by the cooperative in the formation and development of Cooperativa Agroindustrial Copagril Rondon - Paraná. Our leadership in this development methodology, conducted the overall goal to learn, understand and analyze the movement of insertion of members of Copagril in decision-making in the cooperative condition. We directed our research while addressing the problem - to what extent, to assume the personality of cooperating in Copagril guarantees to members participating in decisions in effect deliberative spaces. We develop our thesis based on bibliographical research and the use of instrumental interview. We defined and selected 25 interviews as research subjects themselves members. This academic study referred us to the following conclusion: The Copagril acts vying for their market niche. Their decisions are taken in the same way the other competitors. Thus, farmers trigger movements of non-cooperative loyalty, denying founding elements of the meaning of cooperation.

The theme of solidary economy has gained increasing visibility in recent years. The solidary economy presents itself as a resistance movement to the process of precarious living conditions of workers and has its theoretical basis under construction. The solidary economic enterprises, initially presented as a timid reaction of workers to unemployment and deterioration of labor relations, have proven an efficient generator of work and income, allowing the continuity of their collective activities, with relative perspective of survival. The solidary economy has as one of the key factors for its development the implementation of public policies. Experiences of associations and cooperatives of collectors of recyclable materials have revealed a strict relationship between state and solidary economy. The main objective of this text is analyze if the dynamics in relations between public policies and the experiences of cooperatives workers on selective collection occurs in the sense of building workers autonomy or dependence. This dynamic is analyzed from four experiences of associations / cooperatives of collectors found in the literature and a case study held at the Cooperative Acacia, in the city of Araraquara. Although there are difficulties in notice values of self-management and autonomy in the studied cooperatives, these actions have provided better conditions of work and life of the collectors in comparison to their previous work activities, providing access to social rights by the strengthening of the claims capacity.
A temática da economia solidária vem conquistando visibilidade crescente nos últimos anos. A economia solidária se apresenta como um movimento de resistência ao processo de precarização das condições de vida dos trabalhadores e tem seu referencial teórico em processo de construção. Os empreendimentos econômicos solidários, inicialmente apresentados enquanto tímida reação dos trabalhadores ao desemprego e deterioração das relações de trabalho, têm se mostrado um eficiente mecanismo gerador de trabalho e renda, possibilitando a continuidade coletiva de suas atividades, com relativa perspectiva de sobrevivência. A economia solidária apresenta como um dos fatores-chave para seu desenvolvimento a implantação de políticas públicas. Experiências de associações e cooperativas de catadores de materiais recicláveis têm revelado uma estrita relação entre Estado e economia solidária. A Dissertação tem como objetivo geral analisar se a dinâmica nas relações entre as políticas públicas municipais e as experiências de cooperativas de catadores na coleta seletiva se dá no sentido de construção da autonomia dos trabalhadores ou de reprodução da dependência. Tal dinâmica é analisada a partir de quatro experiências de associações/cooperativas de catadores encontradas na literatura e de um estudo de caso realizado na Cooperativa Acácia, no município de Araraquara. Ainda que existam dificuldades em percebermos valores de autogestão e autonomia nas cooperativas analisadas, tais iniciativas têm proporcionado resultados de melhores condições de trabalho e de vida dos catadores em relação às suas atividades laborais anteriores, propiciando acesso a direitos sociais por meio do fortalecimento da capacidade de luta e reivindicação.

Resumen

The study Assess the role of Cooperatives in Poverty Alleviation in the Eastern Cape Case Study of Amathole District Municipality how cooperatives are conducted in the Amathole District Municipality and establishes the perceptions of staff and members of the public about the service rendered by the municipality, and developing the mechanisms that can be used to identify cooperatives activities and how to improve the services rendered by the municipality, and if there are any challenges, they must be resolved. The research was also to look at how the support from government and other government agencies are used to enhance the cooperatives governance. Lastly, the research was to find the best model for cooperative development and what needs to be done to enhance the capacity of the cooperatives. The literature indicates that staff must be equipped with necessary skills; however it is evident that training and development is essential for the members of the cooperative. Questionnaires and interviews were used as a method of collecting data from the respondents. In this study, both qualitative and quantitative methods were used to analyse the data. The research assumption was that cooperative development is a viable tool for economic development of the rural areas. This can help many South Africans and many communities come out of poverty. However, there are limitations that were caused by the inability of government to co-ordinate cooperative development. Despite the role that cooperatives play in South Africa, cooperatives still experience a number of challenges. These challenges are, amongst others, lack of access to finance, lack of access to market, lack of business skills, lack of infrastructural facilities and lack of knowledge about the cooperative. In view of the challenges facing the cooperatives, the government instituted a number of state departments and parastatals for funding and other necessary support. These are DTI, DEDEA (in the Eastern Cape), ECDC, South African Development Agency (SEDA), Department of Labour and municipalities. The objectives of these support institutions are to provide necessary support needed by cooperatives and to ensure that cooperative development is sustainable.

Resumen

Innovation incentives are imperfectly provided in market settings: When deciding on their innovation activity, firms tend to focus on the maximization of their private benefits, poorly internalizing social benefits. This thesis analyzes how policy intervention could be designed in order to align private and social incentives.

In the three papers of this thesis, I will consider three environments where firms' choices in a laissez-faire situation may be socially inefficient. The inefficiencies arise because of learning externalities, free riding when the innovation decision is made by a group of participants, or because firms are not willing to invest in a new activity that has a higher social than private value.

In the first thesis paper, I deal with the strategies of firms in innovative consumer product markets characterized by demand uncertainty. I analyze the timing and location decision of firms in that context.

In the second thesis paper, I consider the investment incentives of financial market infrastructures (FMIs). FMIs comprise the set of institutions that allow financial market participants to engage with each other. I assess the innovation incentives for different forms of ownership (user-owned versus third-party owned) and identify infrastructure service provision equilibria.

In the third thesis paper, I address the question of how a government should allocate a subsidy budget over time in order to maximize the innovation activity in an industry.

Resumen

A maioria das cooperativas brasileiras preocupa-se em avaliar periodicamente apenas sua dimensão econômico-financeira, esquecendo-se de considerar que esse tipo de empresa é também uma sociedade de pessoas que tem, como objetivo principal, a prestação de serviços a seus associados. A introdução de indicadores sócio-econômicos, entendido como aqueles que refletem o desempenho social das cooperativas, visa justamente aprimorar os modelos, hoje existentes, de avaliação financeira de cooperativas agropecuárias. O presente estudo adquire importância na medida em que se fundamenta no elevado volume de crédito alocado no segmento cooperativista agropecuário brasileiro, acima de 3 bilhões de reais, em 1997, somente através de seu maior credor, o Banco do Brasil, onde cerca de 50% encontravam-se, à época, em situação de inadimplência. Utilizou-se, como embasamento teórico para este estudo, a Teoria da Agência, enfocando a relação entre administradores da cooperativa e associados como uma típica relação \"agente-principal\". Partindo-se dessa teoria, foram escolhidos três indicadores sócio-econômicos e um modelo logit oi ajustado com a finalidade de testar a influência dos mesmos na previsão de nadimplência de cooperativas agropecuárias paranaenses. Os resultados mostram que esses indicadores realmente interferem na previsão de inadimplência das cooperativas analisadas e que sua introdução num modelo que tem, como variáveis independentes, apenas indicadores econômico-financeiros, melhora o índice de acerto, expresso pelo número de casos classificados corretamente. Futuros estudos relacionados à avaliação financeira de cooperativas agropecuárias devem, portanto, considerar a inclusão de indicadores sócio-econômicos.
Most of the brazilian cooperatives are concerned with evaluating periodically only its economical and financial dimension, forgetting to consider that this kind of enterprise is also a society of people which have one main purpose: the assistance to its membership. The social indicators, which reflect the social performance of cooperatives, were introduced to improve the existent models of financial evaluation, developed for rural cooperatives. The importance of this study is based on the high amount of credit alocated on the Brazilian rural cooperativist segment. Only within the Banco do Brasil, its major creditor, this amount exceeded, in 1997, the sum of US$ 2,6 billion, with a default rate of about 50%. Using the theoretical basis of the \"Agency Theory\", this dissertation focused the relation between the managers of the cooperative and their membership, as a typical principal-agent relation. Starting with this theory, three social indicators were choosen and a logit model was adjusted to test the influence of the selected indicators on default prediction of rural cooperatives. The results indicated that these social indicators actually interfere on default prediction of rural cooperatives and that their introduction in a model which have only economic indicators, increase the number of events correctly classified. Therefore, future studies related to the financial evaluation of rural cooperatives should consider the introduction of social indicators.

O campo da economia solidária, enquanto movimento social e enquanto política pública, continua em construção e em busca pelo seu fortalecimento. No Brasil, o processo de institucionalização como política federal começou no ano de 2003, com a criação da Secretaria Nacional de Economia Solidária SENAES/MTE, por meio dos programas governamentais articulados intersetorialmente entre diferentes ministérios. Desde o início do processo de institucionalização, a Política Nacional de Economia Solidária é apresentada como uma estratégia de desenvolvimento e possui fortes laços com o sistema de produção de agroecologia, por isso as cooperativas de agroecologia constituem o foco dessa pesquisa. O processo de implementação de uma política pública possui complexidades próprias, que se tornam ainda maiores quando se refere a uma política pública social e intersetorial, como é o caso estudado. Assim, o objetivo dessa pesquisa é analisar a política nacional de economia solidária por meio do estudo do processo de implementação dos programas de apoio às cooperativas de agroecologia. A análise do processo de implementação utilizada na pesquisa considera os principais elementos das abordagens top-down e bottom-up, em uma abordagem híbrida. Optou-se por uma pesquisa do tipo exploratória, com natureza qualitativa, e do tipo estudo de caso único com duas unidades integradas. As unidades selecionadas são cooperativas agroecológicas de economia solidária – Copavi e Cooperatvama -, que constituem campo de atuação do núcleo Unitrabalho, da Universidade Estadual de Maringá. Para a coleta de dados, foi utilizada entrevista não estruturada com diferentes atores: membros de direção de cooperativas, implementadores e atores de diferentes níveis governamentais. Foram utilizados ainda os instrumentos de observação participante e de análise de documentos. Com base na literatura de implementação de política pública e do levantamento dos principais elementos que compõem o processo de implementação, foi elaborada uma estrutura analítica própria. Os processos de implementação dos programas públicos de apoio à economia solidária selecionados foram analisados a partir dessa estrutura analítica, que considera o plano formulado para cada programa selecionado, a diversidade dos atores governamentais e não governamentais envolvidos no processo de implementação, o plano de estratégias desenhado pelos implementadores para organizar suas ações, o espaço de discricionariedade existente e as possibilidades de conflitos entre os diferentes níveis de governo. Como resultados, foram levantados os principais pontos de sucesso e de problemas que poderão ser utilizados para avaliação e fortalecimento do campo.
The field of solidarity economy, as a social movement and as a public policy, is still under construction and seeks to be strengthened. In Brazil, the process of institutionalization as a federal policy began in 2003, with the creation of the National Secretariat for Solidarity Economy SENAES / MTE (Secretaria Nacional de Economia Solidária SENAES/MTE, in Portuguese), through governmental programs articulated intersectorally between different ministries. Since the beginning of the institutionalization process, the national policy of solidarity economy is presented as a development strategy and has strong ties with the agroecology production system. This way, the focus of this research is agroecology cooperatives. The process of implementing a public policy has its own complexities, which becomes even greater when it refers to a social and intersectoral policy, as is the case of the research. Thus, the objective of this research is to analyze the national policy of solidarity economy through the study of the programs implementation process to support agroecology cooperatives. The implementation process analysis used in the research considers the main elements of the top-down and bottom-up approaches, in a hybrid approach. We chose a research in an exploratory type, with a qualitative nature, and a single case study with two integrated units. The selected units are agroecological cooperatives of solidarity economy – Copavi and Cooperatvama. Its constitute the Unitrabalho field of action, of the State University of Maringá. For the data collection, an unstructured interview was used with different actors: members of cooperative management, implementing actors and actors from different government levels. Participant observation and documentary analysis were also used. Based on the public policy implementation literature and the survey of the main elements that comprise the implementation process, a specific analytical framework was developed. The implementation processes of the selected public programs to support the solidarity economy were analyzed based on this analytical framework that considers the diversity of governmental and non-governmental actors involved in the implementation process, the strategy plan drawn up by implementers to organize their actions, the existing space of discretion, and the possibilities of conflicts between the different government levels. As results, the main points of success and problems that could be used to evaluate and strengthen the field were raised.

A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo verificar se a abertura direta do capital das cooperativas agropecuárias, pela emissão de títulos de dívida (debêntures), possui viabilidade econômica. Para tanto, faz uma revisão crítica da literatura, expondo o pensamento de vários autores sobre os elementos que explicam as origens do movimento cooperativista, as diferenças entre tais sociedades e as firmas de capital, seus padrões atuais de capitalização e financiamento e os principais desafios que lhes são impostos pelos mercados globalizados. Quanto à metodologia, a pesquisa utilizou a tipologia de estudos de casos, tendo como objeto de estudo, duas cooperativas agropecuárias localizadas no Estado do Paraná, cujos nomes foram omitidos para manter o sigilo das organizações. A metodologia de análise proposta foi estruturada de acordo com as seguintes etapas: levantamento dos demonstrativos financeiros, análise financeira tradicional, análise financeira dinâmica, análise do valor adicionado e análise da viabilidade de emissão das debêntures. Pelos resultados apurados, verificou-se que a abertura direta do capital pela emissão das debêntures não pode ser realizada por toda e qualquer cooperativa. É necessário que estudos preliminares identifiquem seu equilíbrio econômico-financeiro, sua capacidade de pagamento e a transparência de sua gestão (governança corporativa cooperativa). Se os pré-requisitos forem atendidos, a cooperativa agropecuária poderá auferir as vantagens da emissão, dentre as quais se destacam: o planejamento sob medida para atender determinado projeto; a flexibilidade dos prazos, das garantias e das condições de pagamento; os custos menores de captação, se comparados aos empréstimos bancários de curto prazo; a dedução do pagamento dos juros no imposto de renda e a manutenção do controle da cooperativa nas mãos dos associados.

Resumen

Com a promulgação da Constituição Federal de 1988, as cooperativas agropecuárias brasileiras deixaram de ser obrigadas a enviar informações relevantes sobre a sua gestão, apresentadas nos seus demonstrativos contábeis, à Secretaria Nacional de Cooperativismo (SENACOOP), órgão do governo federal que regulava, controlava e fiscalizava suas atividades. Assim, neste novo cenário, deixou de existir o órgão, a exemplo do que hoje é feito pela Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (CVM) para as empresas S/A, que estabelecia regras e responsabilidades para diminuir a assimetria de informação sobre a gestão entre os gestores, cooperados e mercado. Adiciona-se a isso o fato de, na década de noventa, ter ocorrido a extinção do Banco Nacional de Crédito Cooperativo (BNCC) e problemas macroeconômicos na agricultura, que elevam a necessidade das cooperativas obter recursos junto a terceiros. Diante do novo cenário e baseado em teorias econômicas que apontam que a existência de assimetria de informações, manifestadas nas formas de seleção adversa ou risco moral (moral hazard), gera ineficiência no funcionamento do mercado, mas que essas podem ser reduzidas por meio de mecanismos de sinalização, e que o rating pode ser usado para tanto, foi objetivo desta pesquisa criar uma metodologia de rating corporativo, específico para cooperativas agropecuárias, pelo fato de essas organizações se diferenciarem das demais por não atuarem com objetivo de lucro. A construção da metodologia ocorreu com base na revisão bibliográfica de teorias econômicas e da administração financeira, de trabalhos científicos que objetivavam avaliar risco de crédito e condição de solvência das cooperativas agropecuárias e nos materiais divulgados pelas principais agências que elaboravam rating no Brasil. Para poder comparar todas as propostas de metodologias das agências e trabalhos revisados, são usados os Cs do crédito, pois se notou que esses são fatores comuns entre todas as metodologias. A metodologia é validada, por meio de estudo de caso, para averiguar sua aplicabilidade em uma cooperativa agropecuária atuante no mercado de café. Durante sua aplicação, notou-se que todos os grupos de tópicos de assuntos e indicadores, a serem diagnosticados, são mensuráveis e comparáveis, sendo considerados pertinentes e importantes pelos executivos da organização avaliada. Os resultados obtidos permitem concluir que a metodologia criada é aplicável e que seus resultados seriam mais significativos se houvesse a discussão sobre os pesos dos indicadores e das notas dos tópicos e grupos, nos denominados comitês de rating, a exemplo do que é feito pelas agências que os elaboram. Como sugestão, é apresentada a necessidade de que novas aplicações da metodologia sejam realizadas para testá-la junto a outras organizações, de forma a consolidá-la como um sinalizador a ser usado pelo mercado e cooperado.
After the promulgation of the Federal Constitution in 1988, the Brazilian Agriculture Cooperative stopped being obligated to send important management information presented in their accounting demonstrations to the National Secretary of Cooperatives (SENACOOP). SENACOOP was a federal organ that regulated, controlled and supervised cooperatives activities and was terminated after 1998. Also, SENACOOP was responsible for establishing rules and reduce the information asymmetry among managers, people associated to the cooperation and market. Those responsibilities were similar to what is done by the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil (CVM) to the shareholder cooperatives. In addition, in the 1990s, the National Bank of Cooperative Credit (BNCC) was terminated and agriculture experienced macroeconomic problems. As a consequence, the necessity of the cooperatives to gain resources together with third part rose. Economic theories assert that the existence of asymmetry of information, manifested as adverse selection or moral hazard, creates market inefficiency. These problem could be reduced by the introduction of signalization mechanisms, like rating. The purpose of this research was create a methodology of cooperative rating. This is justify due to these organizations be different from others and because they do not work with profit as their objective. The methodology construction was based on the literature review on credit risk evaluation and solvency conditions of agriculture cooperatives and on available materials from the main agencies that elaborated rating in Brazil. The Cs of credit were used to compare the different methodologies proposed by the agencies and revised papers, because these are a common factor across all the methodologies. The methodology was corroborated by a case study of an agriculture cooperative which is active in the coffee market. During its application, it was noticed that every group of topics and indicators to be pinpointed are measurable and comparable, being considered relevant and important by executives of the evaluated organization. The gathered results allow to conclude that the created methodology is applicable. However, methodology results would be more significant if there was a discussion about the importance of the indicators and score of topics and groups in the nominated committees of rating, as is done by the agencies which elaborate them. As a suggestion new applications of the methodology need to be done in other organizations, to consolidate it as a signal to be used by the market and people involved in cooperatives.

The solidarity economic enterprises of waste pickers are being created in several Brazilian municipalities as an alternative to humanization and formalization of the picker works at the waste collection systems, in which perform activities of collecting, sorting, processing and commercialization of solid waste. This study aims to identify the stage of development of solidarity economic enterprises of waste pickers in the productive chain of recycling and assess the extent of how support and encourage entities interfere with their progress. For this, we performed a multiple case study with five solidarity economic enterprises of waste pickers and a general characterization of the developments of waste pickers of the State of São Paulo from the survey of the database of the National Information System on Economy Solidarity. The enterprises studied had differential access to infrastructure and technology due to partnerships, especially with municipal governments. It was noted that for the enterprises moving forward on the productive chain does not necessarily have to own the technology to beneficiate the waste beyond the waste sorting and pressing of solid waste. The access to knowledge of the waste market, the ability to negotiate the cooperative's products, the expertise in sorting waste, the direct selling industry without the figure of the middleman, the amount of waste traded and access to technologies for collecting, sorting, pressing and marketing are factors that determine the progress of the solidarity economic enterprises in the production chain of recycling waste. We also observed that waste pickers relate themselves differently with the technology, seeking to adapt it to their own realities and everyday needs.
Os empreendimentos econômicos solidários (EES) de catadores de resíduos sólidos estão sendo criados em diversos municípios brasileiros como uma alternativa para a humanização e formalização do trabalho dos catadores junto aos sistemas de coleta de resíduos, nos quais exercem atividades de coleta, triagem, beneficiamento e comercialização de resíduos sólidos. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo identificar o estágio de desenvolvimento de empreendimentos econômicos solidários de catadores na cadeia produtiva da reciclagem e avaliar em que medida as entidades de fomento e apoio interferem em seu avanço. Para isso, foi realizado uma caracterização geral dos empreendimentos de catadores do Estado de São Paulo, por meio de estudo das informações disponibilizadas no banco de dados do Sistema Nacional de Informações em Economia Solidária-SIES e um estudo de casos múltiplos junto a cinco empreendimentos econômicos solidários de catadores de resíduos nas cidades de Araraquara, Batatais, Catanduva, São Carlos e São José do Rio Preto. Os empreendimentos estudados tiveram acesso diferenciado à infraestrutura e às tecnologias devido às parcerias estabelecidas, principalmente com os governos municipais que possuem papel fundamental na inserção dos empreendimentos na coleta seletiva solidária da cidade com o fomento, institucionalização da atividade e o repasse de recursos para a manutenção dos EES de catadores.Observou-se que avançar na cadeia produtiva não significa necessariamente possuir tecnologias para beneficiar os resíduos para além da triagem e prensagem dos resíduos sólidos. O acesso ao conhecimento do mercado dos resíduos, a capacidade da cooperativa em negociar os produtos, a especialização na triagem dos resíduos, a venda direta para a indústria sem a figura do atravessador, a quantidade de resíduos comercializados e o acesso às tecnologias para a coleta, triagem, prensagem e comercialização são fatores que determinam o avanço dos empreendimentos de catadores na cadeia produtiva da reciclagem dos resíduos sólidos urbanos. Também foi observado que os catadores se relacionam de maneira diferenciada com a tecnologia buscando apropriar e adequá-la às suas próprias realidades e necessidades cotidianas.

Resumen

Dissertação apresentada à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Ciências Empresariais
Este trabalho começa por fazer uma abordagem e caracterização do Terceiro Setor, procurando enfatizar o seu aspecto histórico e a sua relevância econômica no Brasil, o qual vem desempenhando atividades cada vez mais amplas e relevantes nas organizações de Economia Social. Junto ao seu crescimento surge a necessidade de que estas Entidades demonstrem clareza em seus resultados obtidos. Mesmo com a visão voltada para o Social, o Terceiro Setor também tem um processo econômico que precisa ser controlado e divulgado aos seus usuários das informações, sendo a Contabilidade o veículo privilegiado para o efeito. Após um enquadramento teórico da contabilidade como sistema de informação são abordados os procedimentos contábeis em produções agrícolas antes e depois da entrada em vigor, em 2009, das normas do IFRS/IASB, as quais levaram a alterações na contabilidade das empresas do Terceiro Setor com destaque para o caso das cooperativas, nomeadamente plano de contas, estrutura dos códigos de contas relativos a receitas e despesas orçamentárias, nova visão matricial dos resultados orçamentários e patrimoniais, o impacto destas alterações no registo contábil do sistema financeiro patrimonial e nos índices financeiros. O trabalho envolve informações provenientes de fontes bibliográficas, onde se procurou destacar os conteúdos mais condizentes com relação a esta temática.
This work begins by making an approach and characterization of the Third Sector, seeking to emphasize its historical aspect and economic importance in Brazil, which has been playing increasingly broad and relevant activities in the Social Economy organizations. With its growth comes the need for these Entities to demonstrate transparency in its obtained results. Even with its vision turned toward the Social, the Third Sector also has an economic process that must be controlled and issued to the users of the information, being the Accountancy the privileged vehicle for the purpose. After a theoretical framework of accountancy as an information system the accounting procedures in agricultural companies are addressed before and after the adoption, in 2009, of the IFRS/IASB standards, which led to changes in the accounts of the Third Sector companies, namely in the case of cooperatives, including accountancy plan, structure of the accounts’ code for the budget revenues and expenditures, a new matrix view of budgetary and financial results, the impact of these changes in the accounting registration of the equity financial system and in the financial ratios. The work includes information from literature sources, where we tried to highlight the most consistent content in relation to this issue.

Resumen

La ricerca si propone un duplice obbiettivo: 1. provare, attraverso l’applicazione di un metodo teorico tradizionale di analisi economico-finanziaria, il livello ottimale di equilibrio finanziario fra accesso al credito esterno e capitale proprio; 2. mostrare l’utilità di alcuni strumenti finanziari partecipativi per la ricapitalizzazione dell’impresa cooperativa. Oggetto di studio è l’impresa cooperativa che si occupa di una o più fasi del processo di lavorazione, trasformazione e prima commercializzazione del prodotto agricolo conferito dai soci, confrontata con le imprese di capitali che svolgono la medesima attività. La società cooperativa e quella capitalistica saranno, pertanto analizzate in termini di liquidità generata, redditività prodotta e grado di indebitamento, attraverso il calcolo e l’analisi di una serie di indici, tratti dai rispettivi bilanci d’esercizio. È opportuno sottolineare che nella seguente trattazione sarà riservato uno spazio al tema della ricerca del valore nell’impresa cooperativa inteso come espressione della ricchezza creata dai processi aziendali in un determinato periodo di tempo tentando di definire, se esiste, una struttura finanziaria ottimale , ossia uno specifico rapporto tra indebitamento finanziario e mezzi propri, che massimizzi il valore dell’impresa. L’attenzione verso la struttura finanziaria, pertanto, non sarà solo rivolta al costo esplicito del debito o dell’equity, ma si estenderà anche alle implicazioni delle scelte di finanziamento sulle modalità di governo dell’impresa. Infatti molti studi di economia aziendale, e in particolar modo di gestione d’impresa e finanza aziendale, hanno trattato il tema dell’attività di governo dell’impresa, quale elemento in grado di contribuire alla creazione di valore non solo attraverso la selezione dei progetti d’investimento ma anche attraverso la composizione della struttura finanziaria.
Cooperatives have been chosen as starting point of this analysis because they represent a form of vertical integration of the supply chain. As a matter of fact, cooperatives are almost a projection of their members’ firms and have an immediate fall-out effect on the economy at territorial level. The specific objectives were: identification of ratios of performance of cooperatives; evaluation of credit worth to improve the bank-cooperative relationship; evaluation of the creation of value in the cooperatives and non-cooperatives. Data of balansheets are based on AIDA databank and the financial ratios were: profitability, capital invested and working capital, collection period, inventories, debts and financial cycle, cost of leverage, cash flows, strategy of investment.

Resumen

The purpose of this research is to develop a model of organizational capacity that can potentially lead wine cooperatives to achieve success, exploring the factors in the environment that affect their performance and present preliminary criteria to evaluate organizational capacity based on the model. Cooperatives are organizations with particular characteristics. Apart from having sharing cooperative principles and values, there is a dual nature to their purpose that has been noted in the literature. Cooperatives have both an economic and a social dimension: they are simultaneously a business and non-profit driven organizations owned by their members and controlled by them democratically. The aim of cooperatives is to maximise members’ service and satisfaction. Financial indicators alone are not suitable to assess cooperatives’ performance since they are not for-profit organization. So, the construct of organizational capacity, developed to assess the potential of non-profit organizations (NPO) to achieve their goals, was adapted to wine cooperatives in Portugal. Although there are models of organizational capacity for NPO, they do not fit the reality of cooperatives mainly because of their economic role. Cooperatives are also economically oriented businesses. A grounded theory approach was adopted for this research, which is a qualitative methodology that intends to systematically obtain and analyse data in social research to generate theory. Cooperatives were selected through theoretical sampling, aiming to reach cooperatives that could represent the diversity of the universe of 67 wine cooperatives in Portugal in 2015. Twenty-three people (members and managers) were interviewed in 19 wine cooperatives and unions in different regions of the country. The model of organizational capacity in the environment of wine cooperatives was developed taking into account the categories that emerged from data. The model provides a systemic view of the wine cooperative environment and has three sets of categories: members, environmental factors and the cooperative itself. The two categories that compose this last set are cooperative identity and organizational capacity. The core category in the model of organizational capacity in wine cooperatives is management because it is the required ability of managers that allows them to coordinate the environmental factors and other capacities of the cooperative.
O objetivo desta pesquisa é desenvolver um modelo de capacidade organizacional capaz de gerar o potencial de conduzir as adegas cooperativas ao sucesso, identificando os fatores ambientais que afectam o seu desempenho e propor critérios para avaliar a capacidade organizacional das adegas cooperativas a partir do modelo. As cooperativas são organizações com características muito próprias. Para além de partilharem os princípios e valores cooperativos, uma dualidade de propósito tem sido identificada na literatura. As cooperativas têm tanto uma dimensão económica como uma dimensão social: são simultaneamente um negócio e organizações sem fins lucrativas que pertencem e são controladas pelos seus associados, democraticamente. A finalidade das cooperativas é maximizar os serviços e a satisfação dos associados. Indicadores financeiros não são adequados para avaliar o desempenho das cooperativas, pois estas não são organizações que visam lucro. Assim, o constructo capacidade organizacional, desenvolvido para avaliar o potencial das organizações sem fins lucrativos (OSFL) de atingir seus objetivos, foi adaptado para as adegas cooperativas Portuguesas. Embora existam modelos de capacidade organizacional para OSFL, eles não se adequam à realidade das cooperativas dado o seu papel económico. As cooperativas são também negócios com orientação económica. A abordagem de pesquisa foi a teoria fundamentada, uma metodologia qualitativa que pretende obter e analisar dados sistematicamente em pesquisa social para gerar teoria. As cooperativas foram selecionadas através da amostragem teórica, buscando incluir cooperativas que pudessem representar a diversidade do universo de 67 adegas cooperativas existentes em Portugal em 2015. Vinte e três pessoas (associados e gestores) foram entrevistados em 19 adegas cooperativas e uniões, em diferentes regiões do país. O modelo de capacidade organizacional no ambiente das adegas cooperativas foi desenvolvido levando em consideração as categorias que surgiram nas entrevistas. O modelo proporciona uma visão sistêmica do ambiente das adegas cooperativa e apresenta três conjuntos de categorias: associados, factores ambientais e a cooperativa. As duas categorias que compõem este último grupo são a identidade cooperativa e a capacidade organizacional. A categoria central do modelo de capacidade organizacional em adegas cooperativas é gestão pois é a habilidade necessária aos gestores que lhes permite coordenar os factores ambientais e as outras capacidades da cooperativa.

So, the construct of organizational capacity, developed to assess the potential of non-profit organizations (NPO) to achieve their goals, was adapted to wine cooperatives in Portugal. Although there are models of organizational capacity for NPO, they do not fit the reality of cooperatives mainly because of their economic role. Cooperatives are also economically oriented businesses. A grounded theory approach was adopted for this research, which is a qualitative methodology that intends to systematically obtain and analyse data in social research to generate theory. Cooperatives were selected through theoretical sampling, aiming to reach cooperatives that could represent the diversity of the universe of 67 wine cooperatives in Portugal in 2015. Twenty-three people (members and managers) were interviewed in 19 wine cooperatives and unions in different regions of the country. The model of organizational capacity in the environment of wine cooperatives was developed taking into account the categories that emerged from data. The model provides a systemic view of the wine cooperative environment and has three sets of categories: members, environmental factors and the cooperative itself. The two categories that compose this last set are cooperative identity and organizational capacity. The core category in the model of organizational capacity in wine cooperatives is management because it is the required ability of managers that allows them to coordinate the environmental factors and other capacities of the cooperative.
O objetivo desta pesquisa é desenvolver um modelo de capacidade organizacional capaz de gerar o potencial de conduzir as adegas cooperativas ao sucesso, identificando os fatores ambientais que afectam o seu desempenho e propor critérios para avaliar a capacidade organizacional das adegas cooperativas a partir do modelo. As cooperativas são organizações com características muito próprias. Para além de partilharem os princípios e valores cooperativos, uma dualidade de propósito tem sido identificada na literatura. As cooperativas têm tanto uma dimensão económica como uma dimensão social: são simultaneamente um negócio e organizações sem fins lucrativas que pertencem e são controladas pelos seus associados, democraticamente. A finalidade das cooperativas é maximizar os serviços e a satisfação dos associados. Indicadores financeiros não são adequados para avaliar o desempenho das cooperativas, pois estas não são organizações que visam lucro. Assim, o constructo capacidade organizacional, desenvolvido para avaliar o potencial das organizações sem fins lucrativos (OSFL) de atingir seus objetivos, foi adaptado para as adegas cooperativas Portuguesas. Embora existam modelos de capacidade organizacional para OSFL, eles não se adequam à realidade das cooperativas dado o seu papel económico. As cooperativas são também negócios com orientação económica. A abordagem de pesquisa foi a teoria fundamentada, uma metodologia qualitativa que pretende obter e analisar dados sistematicamente em pesquisa social para gerar teoria. As cooperativas foram selecionadas através da amostragem teórica, buscando incluir cooperativas que pudessem representar a diversidade do universo de 67 adegas cooperativas existentes em Portugal em 2015. Vinte e três pessoas (associados e gestores) foram entrevistados em 19 adegas cooperativas e uniões, em diferentes regiões do país. O modelo de capacidade organizacional no ambiente das adegas cooperativas foi desenvolvido levando em consideração as categorias que surgiram nas entrevistas. O modelo proporciona uma visão sistêmica do ambiente das adegas cooperativa e apresenta três conjuntos de categorias: associados, factores ambientais e a cooperativa. As duas categorias que compõem este último grupo são a identidade cooperativa e a capacidade organizacional. A categoria central do modelo de capacidade organizacional em adegas cooperativas é gestão pois é a habilidade necessária aos gestores que lhes permite coordenar os factores ambientais e as outras capacidades da cooperativa.

The economic transformations that happened in the 1990 s have conditioned the formation of strategic alliances among singular milk cooperatives in the state of Paraná. For this study, the research environment was the conglomerate of singular cooperatives bound to the Cooperativa Central Agroindustrial Ltda CONFEPAR, cooperatives which form one of four dairy products alliances. After a decade of existence of this alliance, this study tried to know the aspirations of milk producers bound to it, that is, subsidies were sought for a reevaluation of the strategies adopted by this alliance. The study deals with the following theme: A study of the strategic alliance CONFEPAR, from the viewpoint of bound to the alliance milk producers preferences , with its main goal as to verify the preferences of milk producers bound to the singular cooperatives that form this strategic alliance. In order to guarantee growth and to obtain competitive advantages for the group and the maintenance of these producers, it is necessary to continuously reevaluate business strategies. From this viewpoint, the value of such a study is stressed, because knowing these preferences may represent an important differential to structure new strategies, and to satisfy the involved producer s individual needs. To obtain the goals proposed by this study, a research using Declared Preference technique was conducted, a technique which made possible, after statistical treatment through the software LMPC, to evidence which are the most statistically relevant preferences from the bound to the alliance milk producers viewpoint.
As transformações econômicas ocorridas na década de 1990 condicionaram a formação de alianças estratégicas entre as cooperativas singulares de produtores de leite no Paraná. Para esse estudo, o ambiente de pesquisa foi o conglomerado de cooperativas singulares vinculadas à Cooperativa Central Agroindustrial Ltda CONFEPAR, cooperativas as quais formaram uma das quatro alianças de produtos lácteos. Após uma década de existência dessa aliança buscou-se, com esse estudo, conhecer as aspirações dos produtores de leite vinculados a ela, ou seja, buscaram-se subsídios para uma reavaliação das estratégias adotadas por essa aliança. Nesse sentido, o estudo aborda o tema: Um estudo da aliança estratégica da CONFEPAR, sob a ótica das preferências dos produtores de leite vinculados , tendo como objetivo geral verificar as preferências dos produtores de leite vinculados às cooperativas singulares que compõem essa aliança estratégica. Com o intuito de garantir o crescimento e a obtenção de vantagens competitivas para o grupo e a manutenção desses produtores, é necessário continuamente reavaliar estratégias de negócios. Nesse sentido, salienta-se o valor de tal estudo, pois conhecer essas preferências pode representar um diferencial importante na estruturação de novas estratégias, e ainda satisfazer os anseios individuais dos produtores envolvidos. Para atingir os objetivos propostos por esse estudo fez-se uma pesquisa utilizando a técnica de Preferência Declarada, técnica com a qual foi possível, após tratamento estatístico com o software LMPC, evidenciar quais são as preferências estatisticamente mais relevantes na visão dos produtores de leite vinculados à aliança estratégica estudada.

É observada, no atual contexto da sociedade capitalista, a manifestação em escala crescente de empreendimentos cooperativos baseados na autogestão. Tendo surgido e se desenvolvido no movimento operário em meados do século XIX, na perspectiva de uma sociedade mais justa e igualitária, com base socialista, essa forma de organização do trabalho tem sido adotada (e adaptada) pelo movimento da Economia Solidária após o contexto de crise instaurado por volta da década de 1970. O caráter voluntário da adesão aos empreendimentos coletivos fica comprometido em contextos de crise econômica, nos quais as possibilidades de ocupação são reduzidas. Deste modo, grande parte das pessoas acaba ingressando nos empreendimentos alheias ao seu projeto ideológico. A proposta desta pesquisa é sistematizar informações acerca da rotatividade de sócios em uma cooperativa de trabalho, com dez anos de existência, 327 sócios e 271 ex-sócios. A falta de um quadro estável de sócios pode conferir ao empreendimento um caráter de trabalho paliativo e lhe trazer uma série de problemas. Por meio de análises documentais e de entrevistas com atuais e ex-cooperados, analisou-se variáveis que poderiam estar relacionadas ao alto índice de rotatividade de sócios. O pouco tempo de permanência como sócios na cooperativa e a preferência pelo trabalho com relação de emprego representaram uma influência significativa na questão da alta rotatividade. Com base na pesquisa, foram ainda indicados alguns fatores que poderiam auxiliar na permanência do sócio na cooperativa por um tempo prolongado, durante o qual possa se envolver mais ativamente e absorver melhor a proposta do empreendimento
It is observed, on the current context of capitalist society, the manifestation of a growing scale of cooperatives enterprises based on self-management. Emerged and developed on labour movement in the mid-nineteenth century, on a perspective of fairest and more egalitarian society, with socialist base, this kind of working organization has been adopted (and adapted) by the movement of Social Economy after the crises circumstance around the decade of 1970. The voluntary character of adhesion to collective enterprises becomes implicated on economics’ crises context, on which the possibilities of occupations are reduced. Therefore, a large number of people join enterprises inattentive to their ideological project. The purpose of this research is to systematize information about the rotating of members on a worker cooperative, which has ten years of existence, 327 members and 271 ex-members. The lack of a stable working staff members can confer to the cooperative enterprise a palliative working character, bringing to it series of problems. Through documental analyses and interview with the actual and ex-members, it was observed variables that could be related to the high rate of rotating of members. The little time of permanence as members in a cooperative and the preference to the jobs which have an employ bond represent a significant influence on the rotating of members. According to the research, it was indicated some factors that could support the permanence of the members on the enterprises for a prolonged period of time, in which they could get more actively involved and absorb in a better way the proposal of the enterprises

Neste trabalho busca-se estudar a competitividade das Cooperativas Centrais de Laticínios no Paraná, no contexto das mudanças ocorridas no ambiente econômico micro e macro, a partir do início dos anos 90. Após a desregulamentação do setor, da abertura comercial, da formação do Mercosul e da implantação do Plano Real, a indústria de leite e derivados sofreu profundas reestruturações no plano organizacional e tecnológico. As empresas multinacionais entraram no mercado, sobretudo através de estratégias de crescimento centradas em fusões e aquisições e, ao mesmo tempo, introduziram no mercado uma variedade de produtos. As empresas alteraram seus processos produtivos e se reorganizaram internamente, alterando organogramas e implantando novos processos de gestão administrativa. Por seu turno, a introdução do leite longa vida, em embalagem tetra pak, desestruturou muitos laticínios, inclusive Cooperativas, pela necessidade de investimentos em novas máquinas e equipamentos. Com todo este cenário as Cooperativas Centrais paranaenses SUDCOOP e CONFEPAR, tiveram que alterar o seu posicionamento estratégico no mercado, para tornaram-se competitivas. A SUDCOOP adotou a estratégia competitiva da diversificação, buscando operar com várias linhas de produtos lácteos, enquanto que, por sua vez, a CONFEPAR adotou a estratégia competitiva do enfoque centrada em um segmento específica da linha de produto leite: leite em pó. Considerando-se que o padrão de concorrência para a indústria de leite e derivados aproxima-se do oligopólio diferenciado, a SUDCOOP apresenta a competitividade dinâmica, no entanto, a CONFEPAR não possui tal atributo

Resumen

O objetivo desta pesquisa foi identificar os principais indicadores econômico-financeiros que devem ser considerados no acompanhamento do desempenho das cooperativas agropecuárias. Para tanto, foram analisados 172 demonstrativos financeiros de cooperativas agropecuárias paulistas, dos quais 22 não dispunham de todos os dados necessários, sendo portanto, excluídas, restando 150 observações. As cooperativas apresentam dupla dimensão: a social e a econômica. Estudos comprovaram que, em cooperativas agropecuárias, o desempenho social é uma conseqüência do desempenho econômico. Diante disso, optou-se por avaliar o desempenho dessas entidades utilizando-se de indicadores econômico-financeiros. Para tanto, foi empregada a ferramenta estatística Análise Fatorial, o que permitiu verificar o nível de correlação entre os diversos indicadores, bem como a possibilidade de agrupá-los em fatores. Como pré-requisitos à aplicação desta ferramenta foram utilizados os testes de esfericidade de Bartlett e o teste KMO. Por meio dos testes, comprovou-se adequado uso da ferramenta, porém objetivando melhorar o nível de significância do modelo foram retiradas da análise as variáveis que individualmente apresentavam um baixo nível de relacionamento com as demais, verificando-se melhor nível de adequação do uso da ferramenta. A partir do resultado obtido conclui-se pela existência de quatro fatores centrais formados por nove principais indicadores. Finalmente, por meio das cargas fatoriais obtidas para cada uma das observações, foi possível analisar individualmente três cooperativas e comparar a metodologia empregada neste estudo com a metodologia tradicional, verificando haver coerência entre ambas. Conclui-se que o uso da Análise Fatorial, em relação às cooperativas agropecuárias, proporciona uma maior objetividade na escolha dos principais indicadores, o estabelecimento de um número menor de índices, a avaliação simultânea de vários indicadores, a criação de novos índices que englobam o conteúdo informacional dos indicadores tradicionalmente empregados e a classificação e comparação do desempenho das cooperativas agropecuárias de forma objetiva.
The purpose of this study was to identify the main economic and financial indicators which should be considered to monitor the agricultural cooperatives\' management. It has been analyzed 172 financial statements of agricultural cooperatives from São Paulo state. 22 of them did not present all requested data, remaining 150 observations for the assessment. The cooperatives have two dimensions: the social and economic. Studies have shown that, in agricultural cooperatives, the social performance is a consequence of the economic performance. Therefore, it was chosen to evaluate the performance of these entities by using economic and financial indicators. Applying the Factor Analysis statistical technique it was possible to find out the level of correlation among several indicators, as well as to group them into factors. As a prerequisite for its implementation it was used Bartlett\'s tests and KMO test, proving that the use of the technique was appropriated. However, in order to improve the significance level of the model, some variables which had shown a weak correlation to the other variables were removed, resulting in better outcomes after the application of the technique. It has been found four main factors by combining nine indicators. Finally, through the factorial loadings obtained for each observation, three cooperatives were analysed, and the methodology employed here is compared to the traditional methodology, looking for the existence of some coherence. It follows that the use of the factorial analysis, for agricultural cooperatives, allows less subjectivity in the choice of the key indicators, establishment of a smaller number of indexes, evaluation of multiple indicators, creation of new indexes to cover the informational content of traditional indicators and thus classification and comparison of the agricultural cooperatives´ performance.

A partir dos anos 90, tornou-se um fenômeno recorrente no Brasil os trabalhadores assumirem o controle de empresas que, de outra maneira, encerrariam as atividades. A reabertura das fábricas significa sobretudo a manutenção dos postos de trabalho e uma forma de evitar os malogros do desemprego. Inicialmente, os termos autogestão e cooperativa são utilizados para designar esses casos de fábricas recuperadas pelos trabalhadores. A expressão economia solidária surge entre nós em meados da década de 90, incorporando as experiências de fábricas recuperadas e, ao mesmo tempo, apontando para a constituição de um campo de práticas mais amplo, formado pelas outras modalidades de associações cooperativistas ou baseadas na ajuda-mútua. O surgimento de uma pluralidade de instituições de fomento e assessoria, provenientes do movimento sindical, universidades e organizações da sociedade civil, impulsionaram o desenvolvimento desse campo de práticas. Do mesmo modo, algumas iniciativas no campo das políticas públicas de fomento à economia solidária foram e estão sendo realizadas nas esferas municipais, estaduais e federal. A presente pesquisa procura entender o fenômeno das empresas recuperadas no Brasil a partir da experiência histórica do movimento operário, buscando analisar o espectro de contradições e ambigüidades que decorre do seu próprio desenvolvimento no interior desse modo de produção, isto é, que resultam das próprias relações estabelecidas com as instituições do capitalismo, suas estruturas e processos.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the model of integration of agricultural cooperatives in the State of Paraná. There were studied the characteristics, the factors that hinder and the actions that facilitate the integration of cooperatives and their members and of cooperatives between themselves. Cooperatives have distinct characteristics of other market players, in their purposes, form of management, capital formation and identification with the community where they work. The development of rural cooperatives in Paraná is the result of the Integrated Projects of Cooperatives (PICs), implemented as from 1972. The model provided cooperatives at local level, each with its field of action, with the purpose of providing technical assistance, credit and logistical support to groups of associated producers, and central cooperatives by region, for industrialization and commercialization of the production. The results provided by the integrated projects are evident, for almost 60% of the current agricultural production of the State outcomes through cooperatives. However, over time, due to the uneven growth of cooperatives, there appeared disputes about the area of action between cooperatives and conflicts of interests with regard to the central cooperatives, which endangered the idealized model of integration. Field research, conducted in this study concludes that 75% of the people who composes the internal public of’ the cooperatives - members, board members and employees, agree that there is competition between cooperatives in Paraná. This is a controversial but relevant topic for the development of the cooperatives, which compete with large national and international conglomerates. To overcome the dilemma of integration is an important challenge to cooperative organizations. This dissertation uses the methodology of content analysis, described by Vergara (2007, p. 15) to extract from the literature and the field research the desired results. Based on the Theory of Social Systems Delimitation, designed by Guerreiro Ramos (1981), it is concluded that the agricultural cooperatives of the State of Paraná are organizations of economic interests, which show isonomic characteristics of management. The main factors that hinder the integration of cooperatives were assigned to inner attitudes of cooperative members and managers, such as individualism, lack of knowledge about cooperatives and lack of interest in participating in the cooperative. Among the actions that could contribute to the integration was cited the need to form a new model of integration, supported by education, communication programs and capitalization in compatible volumes with the demands of cooperative projects, both for the cooperative members and for integrated projects between cooperatives.
Analisar o modelo de integração das cooperativas de produtores agropecuários no estado do Paraná foi o propósito deste estudo. Foram estudadas as características, os fatores que dificultam e as ações que facilitam a integração entre cooperados e suas cooperativas e destas entre si. As cooperativas têm características distintas dos outros atores do mercado, nos seus objetivos, na forma de gestão, na formação do capital e na sua identificação com a comunidade onde atuam. O desenvolvimento das cooperativas agropecuárias no Paraná é resultante dos Projetos Integrados de Cooperativismo (PICs), implementados a partir de 1972. O modelo previa cooperativas singulares, cada qual com sua área de ação, com o objetivo de proporcionar assistência técnica, creditícia e apoio logístico aos produtores associados, e centrais cooperativas, por região, para industrialização e comercialização da produção. Os resultados proporcionados pelos projetos integrados são evidentes, pois, quase 60% da produção agropecuária atual provém das cooperativas em todo o estado. Porém, ao longo do tempo, em razão do crescimento desigual das cooperativas, surgiram disputas por área de ação entre cooperativas e conflitos de interesses em relação às centrais que comprometeram o modelo de integração idealizado. Pesquisa de campo realizada para este estudo, mostra que 75% das pessoas que compõem o público interno das cooperativas – cooperados, dirigentes e funcionários, concordam que há concorrência entre cooperativas no Paraná. Trata-se de tema polêmico porém relevante para o desenvolvimento do cooperativismo paranaense, que concorre com grandes conglomerados econômicos nacionais e internacionais. A superação do dilema da integração constitui importante desafio às organizações cooperativas. Esta dissertação utiliza metodologia de análise de conteúdo, descrita por VERGARA (2007, p. 15) para extrair da bibliografia e da pesquisa de campo os resultados almejados. Com base na Teoria da Delimitação dos Sistemas Sociais, concebida por Guerreiro Ramos (1981), conclui-se que as cooperativas agropecuárias paranaenses são organizações de interesse econômico que apresentam características isonômicas de gestão. A maioria dos fatores que dificultam a integração nas cooperativas é originada de atitudes internas de cooperados e dirigentes, tais como: individualismo, falta de conhecimento sobre as cooperativas e falta de interesse em participar da cooperativa. Entre as ações que poderiam contribuir para a integração foi citada a necessidade de se constituir novo modelo de integração, apoiado por programas de educação, comunicação e capitalização em volumes compatíveis com as demandas dos projetos das cooperativas, tanto aos cooperados quanto para projetos integrados entre cooperativas.

Este trabalho constitui um estudo de caso sobre a proposta de Educação Cooperativa Solidária desenvolvida pelo SESCOOP/RS e seus efeitos junto a um empreendimento cooperativo, no caso a UNIMED/RS. A análise desenvolve-se a partir dos cursos de formação do SESCOOP/RS, junto à referida cooperativa. Além disso, visa identificar, com base em elementos teóricos e empíricos, até que ponto a proposta de ação metodológica do SESCOOP em cursos de formação em cooperativismo, potencializa, entre os associados que passaram pelo curso, uma identificação com a proposta da cooperativa, no que se refere às suas práticas e valores; ou, se ao contrário, esta ação limita-se a uma efetividade econômica da cooperativa. Para tanto, são analisados os sentidos de legitimação da entidade SESCOOP a fim de identificar a relação entre a proposta prevista em contrapartida aos resultados obtidos. Os resultados apontam para um distanciamento entre a proposta de legitimação da entidade e o resultado de sua ação junto ao grupo estudado.
This work is based on a case study about the proposal of Solidary Cooperative Education developed by SESCOOP/RS and the effects of its application on a cooperative company, the UNIMED/RS. The analysis has as source the graduation courses that SESCOOP/RS has provided to the referred cooperative company. Its aim is to identify, with basis in theoretical and empirical elements, how much the SESCOOP method of cooperativeness education empowers the graduates for a better approach to the cooperative proposal, its practices and values, or if this action is restricted to an economic effectiveness of the cooperative company. With this objective I have conducted interviews in order to analyze the sense of legitimacy of the entity and its connection to the education proposal. The analysis has shown a far distance between the proposal of legitimacy and the results of its application among the group under study.

This study aimed to verify if the recycling cooperatives implant the collectors of recyclable material, socioeconomically or not. The research was based on bibliographical and documentary review on the subject and also the comparative analysis of multi-case study in three recycling cooperatives located in São Paulo. We used to collect data from semi-structured interviews with cooperative members of these organizations and direct non-participant observation. The chosen approach was the analysis of qualitative data with the support of Atlas.ti software. The results will offer suggestions with proposals to managers, companies and policy makers so that the socio-economic inclusion is more effective. The main results of the study showed that the inclusion of collectors of recyclable material is processed with greater emphasis by the economic dimension in which the generation of employment and income become important factors to promote citizenship of these workers. It was observed in the cooperatives eager, but little effectiveness in implementing programs aimed at the social dimension as inclusion factor, in which the categories 'education' and 'health' could have priority in their management. It's worth mentioning that the analyzed recycling cooperatives comply with their proposals to provide access to work and therefore income. However, gaps in the social dimension could be minimized by the most action of public authorities and companies, in partnership with these collective social enterprises, in drafting of strategic plans that seek to actions aimed at increasing access to health and education programs and professional training of collectors
Este trabalho teve como objetivo verificar se as cooperativas de reciclagem inserem socioeconomicamente ou não os catadores de material reciclável. A pesquisa baseou-se na revisão bibliográfica e documental sobre o tema e também na análise comparativa de estudo multicasos em três cooperativas de reciclagem localizadas na capital paulista. Utilizou-se a coleta de dados a partir de entrevistas semiestruturadas com os cooperados dessas organizações e da observação direta não participante. O enfoque escolhido foi a análise de dados qualitativos com o apoio do software Atlas.ti. Os resultados permitirão oferecer sugestões com propostas aos gestores, empresas e formuladores de políticas públicas a fim de que a inclusão socioeconômica seja mais efetiva. Os principais resultados da pesquisa apontaram que a inclusão dos catadores e catadoras de material reciclável se processa com maior ênfase pela dimensão econômica, na qual a geração de trabalho e renda tornam-se fatores preponderantes para promover a cidadania desses trabalhadores. Observou-se por parte das cooperativas muita vontade, mas pouca efetividade na implementação de programas que visem à dimensão social como fator de inclusão, na qual as categorias educação e saúde poderiam ter prioridade em suas gestões. Vale destacar que as cooperativas de reciclagem analisadas cumprem com suas propostas de prover acesso a trabalho e, consequentemente, renda. No entanto, as lacunas encontradas na dimensão social poderiam ser minimizadas pela maior ação do poder público e das empresas, em parcerias com esses empreendimentos sociais coletivos, na elaboração de planos estratégicos que busquem ações direcionadas para maior acesso à saúde e aos programas de educação e capacitação profissional dos catadores de material reciclável
