La autonomía e independencia: análisis de la efectividad del cuarto principio del cooperativismo bajo la perspectiva de la ontología cooperativa

Abstract

The effectiveness of the cooperative principles is subrogated to the tenacity of the joint application of all, in a systematic way, and not of the observation of one, or of some. Therefore, it must be understood that the principle of autonomy and independence is not shown as an individual guideline, and its dedication conditions the effectiveness of other principles, such as that of democratic management. In this sense, the conformation of a set of principles translates, from the ontological perspective of Cooperativism, the condition of the potential cooperative being, which is the cooperative society that achieves, in addition to its economic projection, the fulfillment of the cooperative spirit.Received: 13 June 2019Accepted: 01 October 2019Published online: 19 December 2019
