El cooperativismo de trabajo visto desde la perspectiva obrera: apuntes para una nueva ley de cooperativismo de trabajo asociado en Puerto Rico

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to identify the deficiencies present in the Puertorrican workers cooperatives law, and to propose those changes that are required to make such statute a better instrument for the promotion and development of workers cooperatives as an alternative to the difficulties created by the capitalist enterprises for the working class. Such, departing from the analysis and identification of those elements inherently tied to the capitalist work system that has to be overcome as result of any new legislation truly intended to foster the free and democratic associations of worker’s in their own productive enterprises.
