Resumen

El fenómeno de la cooperación responde a una concepción holística del proceso productivo. Por ello, la calidad del sistema democrático de una organización cooperativa va a depender de la dinámica psicosocial y económica establecida. Entre esos condicionantes internos y externos a la cooperación, que actuarán determinando la forma, contenido y extensión de la participación, nos encontramos con la cultura organizacionaly las características psicosociales propias de los cooperativistas. En este estudio contrastamos, precisamente, la incidencia de estas variables sobre el sistema de participación de una muestra de cooperativas andaluzas de trabajo asociado.

Abstract

Workers' cooperatives are based on a holistic conception of the productive process. As a result, the quality of the democratic system of a cooperative organization is highly dependent on the existing psychosocial and economic system. Among the internal and external factors conditioning the form, contents and range of co-operation, different variables can be distinguished, such as psychosocial characteristics and organizational culture. This paper studies the impact of these variables on the participation system in a sample of Andalusian co-operatives.
