Abstract

The deepening of the economic crisis and the processes that led to the disappearance of industrialization as a result of the systematic application of neoliberal politics in Argentina paved the way for a social phenomenon that has involved the recovery of more than 200 bankrupt companies. The companies which are managed by the workers themselves are an expression of creativity in the face of unemployment and its devastating effects. This article centres on a series of problematic situations concerning these cooperative experiences. Its most important aim is to analyse the opposing forces once the companies started to work. It explores the role of trust, the emergence of collective projects and the scope of an ethics of care in these typically precarious and risky experiences. Finally, an extensive paragraph is devoted to the complicated bond between the cooperatives and their respective markets when they sell their products. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
