L’extension de la culture du cacao est bien manifeste dans plusieurs villages du Territoire de Tshela. L’intérêt de cette culture parait inversement proportionnel à la compétence des producteurs locaux. Car, ces derniers travaillent en marge des connaissances techniques modernes. Ils n’utilisent que des techniques et instruments traditionnels et ne peuvent donc facilement assurer l’amélioration de leur revenu. Dans les années 2020, les producteurs locaux se sont organisés en associations des producteurs pour tenter de résoudre ce problème. En 2009, de ces associations des producteurs émerge la Coopérative Cacao Mayumbe « COCAMA » qui a pour mission d’assurer la transformation locale de la fève humide du cacao, et d’exporter le produit marchand « cacao sec ». Elle a son siège social à Nganda-Tsundi, Territoire de Tshela, dans la Province du Kongo Central en République Démocratique du Congo « RDC ». La COCAMA se veut donc une organisation agricole qui, face à la désindustrialisation de la RDC, désire transformer massivement et exporter le cacao produit par les producteurs du Territoire de Tshela Dans cette recherche, nous désirons faire une confrontation du coût de traitement post-récolte de fève humide du cacao au budget prévisionnel de la COCAMA pour l’exportation du cacao marchand en 2020.

In terms of increasing the development level of our country, developments that will take place locally are very important. Among the most important studies on this subject are the works to be carried out by the cooperatives. The success of cooperatives is important for their partners, their social environment, for the region and the country. However, it is not scientifically possible to determine the success level of an immeasurable phenomenon. Therefore within the scope of this study, in the context of the satisfaction of the cooperative partners, "Success Criteria Scale for Cooperatives" -which aims to measure cooperative performance- has been tried to be revealed by working on partners of the most frequently encountered cooperatives in daily life (such as "Women's Cooperatives, Agricultural Sales Cooperatives, Production and Marketing Cooperatives and Agricultural Development Cooperatives".) In this way, it is aimed to contribute to the literature by developing a scientific scale that includes a number of success criteria that will be used as a basis for the success of cooperatives.

L’objet de recherche de cette enquête traite l’ultime construction du profil leadership féminin dans un travail coopératif. A travers ce travail, a été mis en lumière les mécanismes de construction d’un profil leader chez les femmes-dirigeantes au sein d’une coopérative et les mécanismes d’extension de ce profil hors de la sphère de la coopérative. Nous avons procédé notre terrain en deux étapes : La première étape est une étape exploratoire de recherche, où nous nous sommes intéressés à étudier une seule coopérative afin de faire le lien entre les approches théoriques et les pratiques sociales. Dans la deuxième étape, nous avons communiqué avec d’autres coopératives féminines. L’utilisation de trois outils de méthode a caractérisé cette recherche qualitative, à savoir l'entretien semi-directif, l'observation et le récit. Les résultats du travail sur le terrain nous ont conduits à constater que le profil leader se construit au sein de la coopérative dans une première phase grâce à la constance et au développement de conditions favorables, ce qui conduit en conséquence dans une seconde phase à la création d’une mouvance adéquate et propice à l’émergence de la personnalité leader à l’extérieur de la coopérative.

In the shadow of the 1968s, the 1980s was a period rich in workers' experiences that are still little known. Combining both public authorities and trade unions, this period also marked the affirmation of the “Confédération Générale des SCOP de France” (CGSCOP). Since its institutionalisation at the end of the 19th century, this structure has remained relatively marginal among the organisations representing workers. This article will look back at this little-known but decisive sequence in understanding the social transformation projects of this period. Firstly, we will see, for example, that an interest in workers' cooperation at the end of the 1970s was far from being the prerogative of the left: it constituted an 'ecumenical utopia' that included a number of right-wing political actors, particularly in the dual context of the promotion of the enterprise and industrial crises. Secondly, we will try to understand the effects of the Socialist victory in 1981 on the production cooperative movement. The CGSCOP was not the only one to invest in the cooperative field. It was joined by the CGT, which was looking for a response to the increasing number of company bankruptcies. Finally, we shall see how this all-out appropriation of cooperation gave rise to a multitude of tensions and disillusionment, leading to the rapid marginalisation of a workers' conception of self-management. In short, it was not so much the collective enterprise as a certain form of popular power that closed the cycle of the 1968s.

After a short history, the cooperative is placed in the broader framework of the social economy, under the umbrella of which the platform cooperative comes to life. From the sectors of the digital economy within the platform cooperative is used, we turn our attention to that of data. The data cooperative is defined, starting from the significance of the traditional cooperative, as reflected in the legislation. Then, its development in the context of the digital data explosion and the use of this avatar of the cooperative for the benefit of the „producers” of data are discussed. Possible obstacles to the success of the data cooperative are briefly pointed out, and at the end, the European legislator's vision for the data cooperative is presented, as set out in the new Regulation (EU) 2022/868, known as the Data Governance Act.

This study highlights the impact of innovation on the market orientation and performance of a cooperative for the valorization of prickly pear co-products in Algeria. While the collective entrepreneurship outcomes have been widely discussed, it has been much less so for innovative cooperatives. In this paper, we focus on the performance of this model of entrepreneurship based on the reappropriation of technical innovations. In this sense, our analysis seeks to extend previous empirical research on the performance of agricultural cooperatives by introducing market orientation and a more comprehensive assessment of the socioeconomic performance of innovative cooperatives like Nopaltec. Our results on « alternatives » performances – role in collective appropriation and dissemination of innovation, sector structuration, socio-political and territorial functions of the cooperative – argue for a broader conception of the performances of agricultural cooperative structures.

Cet article entend nuancer une thèse mise en avant par de nombreux travaux sur les coopératives alimentaires, qui souligne les tensions entre leurs objectifs militants et productifs. En mobilisant les données d’une enquête ethnographique réalisée à Paris sur une période de deux ans, et en s’appuyant sur le modèle de l’articulation contingente segmentée proposé par Giry et Wokuri (2020), l’article montre que ces tensions sont loin d’être unanimement perçues « de l’intérieur ». À travers l’exemple de la politique d’achat et de vente de la coopérative étudiée, nous montrons que l’articulation de ses objectifs militants et productifs, telle qu’elle transparaît dans les discours des enquêtés, est bien contingente et segmentée. La politique d’achat et de vente est ici déclinée en trois segments : la politique tarifaire de la coopérative, le choix des produits, et le fonctionnement hybride du magasin. La première partie montre que pour chacun de ces trois segments, les coopérateurs ont des points de vue hétérogènes sur les rapports entre rendements militants et productifs, ceux-ci étant tout aussi bien décrits comme divergents, convergents ou indépendants. La seconde partie montre que les perceptions des coopérateurs, et plus largement leur engagement dans la coopérative, sont partiellement stabilisés à travers diverses activités de régulation (Le Velly, 2017). La conclusion souligne que se pencher sur la manière dont les coopérateurs définissent « ce qui compte » pour eux permet de nourrir une réflexion plus large sur la pérennité des initiatives alternatives qui se montent actuellement, et sur le potentiel d’essaimage des coopératives.

The present paper, which is based on the experience of the Baie-Johan-Beetz Solidarity Cooperative, examines the efforts of a small Northern community of 78 residents to empower itself and which, despite its unfavourable geographical location, is developing large projects. To address the issue of local development in Northern living environments, it draws on the literature bearing on centre-periphery models, social innovation and relationships to territory. Situated at the crossroads of academic and citizen-based knowledge, and rooted in fieldwork-related methodology, the paper is built around the story occurring over the last decade of the birth, development and vitality of the Baie-Johan-Beetz Solidarity Cooperative. Set against a backdrop of local struggles fighting the deterioration and closure of local services, the community in question provides an example of the ability to mobilize Northern communities around a collective and socially innovative project. The conclusions underscore the urgent need for change in the Northern governance model, with a view to promoting local development for the benefit of Northern communities, as well as improving relations between Northern and Southern Quebec.

On s’aperçoit de plus en plus que les acteurs informels sont à la recherche de meilleures conditions de vie, ils développent en continu des activités socio-économiques locales absorbant une masse importante de main d’œuvre à la recherche d’emploi. Cette autre voie de développement, appelée «économie informelle», constitue aujourd’hui pour les acteurs de la classe populaire une alternative de croissance socio-économique face à l’Etat et au marché.A partir de l’analyse de l’état de l’art de l’économie informelle, et d’une enquête de terrain sur la coopérative ATTAWAFOUK de tri des déchets en provenance des villes de Rabat-Salé-Témara, cette communication a pour objectif d’explorer le processus de transition du tri informel vers le tri formel, et par la suite, de développer un modèle contextuel résumant les différentes mesures pouvant être utiles pour la réussite de cette transition.

This work aims to analyze the marketing success factors of Moroccan cooperatives through an empirical approach on a representative sample of the Marrakech-Safi region. It highlights the major handicaps to the introduction of a marketing approach within these cooperatives, as well as the solutions proposed to face this situation. In light of the importance of cooperatives in sustainable development, cooperatives have a fundamental obligation to promote the sale of their offered objects based on their specific characteristics and by promoting their social, solidarity, ecological and ethical values.

The concept of Private-Public Partnership was used to provide infrastructure in developed countries for long time and the arrangement was applied by other countries due to its effectiveness and efficiency. This paper tried to explore how Private-Public Partnership is useful in minimising corruption cases in land administration for the case of Bujumbura City. A mixed research approach has been used to collect primary and secondary data. The findings are based on desk review and key informants’ information selected purposively. The study revealed that Private-Public Partnership is an arrangement that minimises corruption cases in land administration where information dissemination to all parties involved in the project is effective. The processes and procedures for land acquisition, land allocation are open to all. Land allocation is guided by market prices whereas titles are provided within one month by cooperatives. All corruption gaps that may be used by land officers and others are filled.

Debate on cooperative groups and the peasantry are still going on smoothly in Cameroon and particularly in the Nyong and Sanaga region, where agriculture occupies a central position through its contribution to the gross national product. The objective of cooperatives and Insurance Funds created during the period when Cameroon was still a mandated territory was clearly to contribute to the modernization and the improvement of living conditions of peasant who were the prime movers of the economy. In this article, the point is to recall the genesis and describe the functioning of the economic and social organization in the Nyong and Sanaga region during the colonial era. It is expected that, through this article, these organizations which play an important role in the improvement of food security, job creation and the reduction of poverty will come back to existence with added dynamism.

Our work is part of the cooperative development research perspective within the economy, more specifically in the cooperative economy. It is based on the constraints and limits observed by researchers in the overall calculation of the cooperative performance, integrating all dimensions. Our study focuses on removing the constraints and limits related to the calculation of the overall performance of cooperative societies. On this basis, the text proposes to formulate approaches for calculating cooperative performance that integrate all dimensions (various variables).The calculation method identified incorporates indicators defined in five dimensions, including social performance, economic and/or financial performance, human performance, material performance and organizational performance following our study. The statistical method of dimension standardization according to Daumas F. (1982) was tested, used and proposed to remove the constraints and limitations of overall performance calculation. Indeed, it has made it possible to standardize the units of the various indicators used to calculate overall performance This process was used to calculate the overall performance of twelve cooperative companies, six of which are from the oil palm sector and the other six from the coffee and cocoa sector. It made it possible to highlight the value of the overall performance of each cooperative company and then the value of the performance of all cooperative companies by sector. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper constitutes an attempt to define the communication style as a cluster of discursive elements, both formal or technical, such as turn taking patterns, overlap or backchannelling, and those based on pragmatic usage, such as emotionally loaded language, politeness patterns, gender differences, metaphors, neologisms, humour or laughter, as well as other elements of discourse culture such as culture-specific values. Following the discussion of relevant intercultural studies, the paper moves on to analyse two corpora of Polish face-to-face conversations and draws some tentative conclusions about Polish communication style, which is broadly cooperative, expressive, uses positive politeness, although it abounds in open disagreement as well as linguistic creativity.

Since the 19th century, co-operatives have operated for their members’ wealth promoting economic activities in different fields. The key characteristic of these firms is the mutuality, which allows members to have a direct benefit working co-operatively for the organization (Zamagni, 2005). Recent economic crisis has encouraged people to demand a new sustainable economy, co-ops can respond because they serve communities’ needs and interests (Vieta & Lionas, 2015); community co-ops are the result of this process. This paper wants to analyse how community co-ops are modifying the co-op structure in order to respond to new social issues. Is the community co-op re-shaping the idea of mutuality? In what way? Community co-operatives are renewing the co-operation model surpassing the classic mutualistic structure, which only provides the co-ops’ members with benefits, and pays their attention to outcomes for the entire community.

Abstract In Turkey, Agricultural Development Cooperatives are very important for bringing the resources in rural area to the economy, establishment of agro-industrial facilities for processing agricultural products and preventing migration from rural area to cities. While the number of Agricultural Development Cooperatives in Turkey was 6000 in 1974, it rose to 7196 in 2017. Total number of partners of these cooperatives is 775255. The aim of the study is to reveal financial structures of Agricultural Development Cooperatives within the scope of the research by using ratio analyses. Data in this study were retrieved from income statement and balance sheets belonging to 2016 of 70 Agricultural Development Cooperatives in the Western Mediterranean Region. Ratio analyses were classified as financial structure ratios, activity efficiency ratios and profitability ratios in this study. Financial analysis was conducted for Agricultural Development Cooperatives by comparing the values obtained as a result of analysis with the standard values. Findings obtained from this study and other similar studies suggest that one of the most significant problems of agricultural development cooperatives is finance. As a result of the study, it was determined that the cooperatives studied were not in financial sufficient level. The financial weaknesses of the cooperatives examined mean that they can face financial problems in the long run. Financial insufficiency poses a risk in terms of the continuity of the surveyed cooperatives.

In Morocco, the emergence of the cooperative sector in a structured and organized form dates back to the 1980s, although the culture of solidarity, mutual aid and collective work constitute a component of Moroccan culture and traditions. Indeed, social economy organizations, particularly associations and cooperatives, have rapidly developed thanks to the efforts made by the State, especially in the rural world for the financing and support of development projects, the fight against illiteracy, precariousness and poverty, the promotion and integration of women into the economic circuit. Even today and since May 18, 2005, the date of the launch of the National Human Development Initiative (INDH) by His Majesty King Mohamed VI, the aim of this study is to compare the Moroccan Model of cooperative with the other’s counties models.

In a context of globalization, the capitalist economy is no longer immune to the deluge of crises that have followed one another since the crisis subprime in the United States until the Japanese stock market crisis influencing the global economic fabric.Thus, several countries with great economic strength like France have turned to the social and solidarity economy as an alternative banning the single search for financial gain by introducing additional social and environmental components.At this advanced stage and after 10 years of launching the INDH in its second phase, why associations and cooperatives still do not manage to be autonomous, responsible and independent? Why the various training, support and communication actions remain inefficient and inoperative? Why several projects that have emerged are still overdue despite the availability of financial funds? Why is Morocco still not witnessing the emergence of this great economic model?

Les oasis du Tafilalet sont des territoires agro-écologiques en équilibre fragile. Le palmier dattier constitue non seulement une culture à valeur ajoutée élevée mais aussi l’ossature de la vie oasienne. L’attention accordée à la filière phoenicicole dans le cadre du contrat programme liant le gouvernement et l’interprofession s’est matérialisée entre autres par la création de groupements d’intérêt économique ayant bénéficié d’unités de valorisation dont la capacité varie de 100 à 400 tonnes. Les résultats d’un diagnostic réalisé auprès de 8 groupements de la zone du Tafilalet ont fait ressortir que la fonctionnalité des groupements d’intérêt économique et l’opérationnalisation des unités de valorisation sont étroitement liées aux capacités collectives des coopératives adhérentes. L’État poursuit les efforts d’autonomisation de ces groupements en insistant sur le rôle d’accompagnement et d’appui méthodologique de ces groupements et de leurs membres.

De René Dumont (1904-2001), le grand public ne conserve souvent que quelques souvenirs associés pour la plupart à la campagne présidentielle de 1974. Devant les caméras, l’homme en colère, affublé d’un pull-over rouge, met en garde contre la disparition prochaine de l’eau potable et s’indigne de la persistance de la faim dans le tiers-monde. Si René Dumont est resté à la postérité comme le premier candidat écologiste à l’élection présidentielle, il ne peut être réduit à cet épisode de quelques semaines dans une vie militante et professionnelle très riche. Au travers de ses voyages d’études et de ses très nombreux livres, René Dumont a été amené à concevoir une forme d’écosocialisme, appelant de ses vœux une civilisation « de l’arbre et du jardin ». C’est à l’analyse de cette pensée que cet article est consacré, en s’intéressant à ses propositions théoriques ainsi qu’à la manière dont il s’est efforcé de traduire sa pensée en actes.

La filière apicole est largement soutenue par l’État au Maroc. La région de Fès-Meknès a choisi de positionner l’apiculture comme un levier de développement rural. À travers un recensement auprès des administrations concernées, puis d’enquêtes auprès de 44 organisations professionnelles apicoles, notre étude propose une approche s’inscrivant dans un diagnostic de filière régionale. Les données recueillies révèlent l’importance des coopératives dans les formes collectives de production apicole et l’implication de jeunes ruraux et de femmes dans les processus de décision. Les techniques apicoles sont hétérogènes, traduisant une adaptation des méthodes traditionnelles aux techniques modernes, mais avec certaines pratiques, notamment sanitaires, qui restent empiriques. La formation initiale des personnes est un atout aussi bien pour la structuration de la filière que du point de vue de la maîtrise du cheptel. Les ressources florales sont variées et continues au niveau de cette grande région, permettant d’imaginer des transhumances pour récolter des miels typiques dans le respect des potentiels disponibles. Peu équipés en matériel inox, les apiculteurs restent demandeurs en termes d’équipements de miellerie. La production modeste est largement écoulée au détail et le conditionnement reste à améliorer pour une bonne reconnaissance du produit. La participation des apiculteurs aux salons régionaux contribue favorablement à une image identitaire qui devra être cultivée.

During the socialist regime, housing cooperatives had developed a major role in urban dwelling supply in Central European countries as Poland or Czechoslovakia. They were home of a vast majority of the population, with the exception of the poorest and the richest. Since 1990 national states however have withdrawn from the housing question, and especially from the cooperative sector which they used to support; housing production is thus almost entirely covered by the private sector. What is happening to housing cooperatives? Under which conditions did they shift to condominiums? Do they manage to maintain or renew an alternative supply to the one offered by developers? This paper focusses upon the differentiated evolution of housing cooperatives in Poland and Slovakia and especially in their respective capital cities where housing markets are deeper exposed to metropolitan processes.

The study on the evolution of the consumer co-operation in the area around Monfalcone in the post-WWII period draws a picture never retraced before by historiography, at least locally. Subject of the analysis is, on the one hand, the growth of business organizations – from the early Cooperativa Consumo Lavoratori del Monfalconese (1945), through the Coop Consumatori Friuli (1985) and up to the Coop Consumatori Nordest (1945); on the other hand, the transition from the small town shops to the first Discount Store in Monfalcone in the 70s up to the following substitution with the updated Supercoop. Specifically, the foundation of one of the first nationwide Discount Stores was – for the Monfalcone area and the consumer co-operation – a pilot experience achieved through the relationship with the local authorities, the political organizations and the trade unions of that time.

An ILO 2014 summary report on Morocco stressed that "the low quality of jobs and vulnerability at work mainly affects informal and rural workers, especially women, youth and non-graduates." Women's access to employment is a key issue in the fight against vulnerability because of its impact on human and economic development. However, one of the most widely proposed solutions within the framework of the INDH program is the cooperative. In recent years, this type of work organization experienced strong growth in Morocco and, theoretically, appeared to be a good solution for the empowerment of women, especially in rural areas. However, critical interpretations emerged at the same time showing that women were confined locally to "small projects for women" that kept them in their vulnerable situations, did not solve the issue of labor informality and added to their daily stresses. Our surveys of women in charge of agricultural cooperatives in the region of Rabat show that, despite all the obstacles and constraints, there is an empowerment process in place.

Au Maroc, les politiques publiques en zones rurales ont récemment donné une importance accrue aux projets de développement locaux. Les évaluations de ces projets ont porté souvent sur les réalisations d’ordre physique et financier et moins sur les apprentissages et les compétences des participants à ces projets. Nous avons mené une étude sur les compétences et les apprentissages des participants à des projets de développement local, et la contribution de ces projets à l’amélioration de leurs capacités à mener de nouveaux projets par la suite, de leurs ressources et de leurs représentations. L’étude a porté sur 5 expériences collectives de la province de Séfrou. L’analyse a permis de classer les 13 participants enquêtés en 4 groupes selon les compétences et apprentissages qu’ils soient d’ordre technique, administratif, en relation avec l’action collective ou bien de changement de représentations et valeurs ( notamment sur la manière de se voir, en termes de capacité d’action individuelle et collective). Il apparait un large écart entre bénéficiaires et leaders en termes de compétences et apprentissages, ce qui pourrait mettre en cause le fonctionnement et la pérennité des associations qui gèrent les projets collectifs en cas de départ des leaders.

On s’intéresse dans cet article à étudier les modes de gestion à mettre en œuvre par les autorités locales pour que l’artisan algérien puisse atteindre ses finalités professionnelles autrement dit à faire réussir son métier ? Parmi les modes de gestion adoptés pour assurer un développement durable dans l’artisanat traditionnel en Algérie est la création des SPL dans chaque secteur d’activités artisanales. La formule de coopérative est la mieux indiquée pour assurer la réussite du système productif local (SPL), récemment mis en place pour promouvoir l’artisanat et les métiers traditionnels en Algérie. On s’intéresse à étudier la place du système productif local dans la théorie des ressources et compétences. L’artisan, est considéré comme un acteur, une ressource humaine spécialisé exerçant, dans son atelier, son métier comme tous les processus de l’activité artisanale contrairement aux grandes entreprises. Devant les changements rapides dans l’environnement, l’artisan traditionnel doit réagir et mettre en œuvre une stratégie de survie et de développement pour son métier.
