“Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE). Between Interaction and Co-construction”, under the coordination of Prof. Nadine Richez-Battesti (University of Aix Marseille-LEST-CNRS, France, nrichezbattesti@wanadoo.fr)) and Xabier Itçaina (CR CNRS science politique, Centre E. Durkheim Sciences po Bordeaux, France – Marie Curie Fellow, European University Institute Florence, x.itcaina@sciencespobordeaux.fr), 2013-2016. Working Program
The coordinators rallied some twenty researchers from 15 countries (European Union and Canada, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela) interested in a new discussion theme “Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE). Between interaction and co-construction”.
The proposed work programme was the subject of a presentation to the Scientific Commission and the Scientific Council of CIRIEC and was adopted in April 2013.
The works ran for two years, taking the form of seminars organised in different countries. They resulted in the production of a collective work:
Social and Solidarity-based Economy and Territory: From Embeddedness to Co-construction / CIRIEC, Xabier Itçaina and Nadine Richez-Battesti, editions Peter Lang, 2018.
Book review available HERE
On the basis of the gathered expressions of interest and the wishes of the coordinators, two axes served as the main themes of research:
– the territory as social construction – the new statutes of the SSE and the renewal of systems: territorial constructions?
Some twenty proposals allow envisaging a publication in three parts:
i) SSE and territory: the crisis and resource for local innovation? (illustrated by partners’ articles from Belgium, Brazil, Italy and Romania)
ii) Towards new heterogeneous forms of territorial cooperation? (illustrations from Germany, Colombia, Spain, Basque Country and France)
iii) Towards a reterritorialization of the big operators of the SSE (Belgium, Quebec, …).
