Abstract

[eng] Agricultural co-operatives and professional associations in the west of france : the case of loire-atlantique . More than elsewhere the farmers' organizations of Loire-Atlantique manifest the inconsistencies of the rural world in its relation with agricultural co-operatives, especially at the end of the sixties. After the 1968 ideological turmoil, the circle « Paysans Travailleurs » (Peasant-Workers) preaches an active contestation while the FDSEA (Departmental Federation of Farmers' Syndicates), which has broken with its national representative FNSEA, endeavours to be critical and attentive to the evolution of cooperation. The UDSEA (Departmental Union of Farmers' Syndicates) considers the co-operative enterprise as a useful economic tool ; however its solidaristic management should not be a handicap for efficient farmers. At last, farmers who sympathize with FFA (French Federation of Agriculture) contest its too collectivist organization. New farmers generations are less interested by basic values of co-operation : during the eighties, the economist and liberal ideology has taken the lead over the solidaristic and associationest vision. [fre] Le syndicalisme agricole en Loire-Atlantique exprime plus qu'ailleurs les contradictions du monde paysan dans la relation à la coopération agricole, notamment à partir de la fin des années soixante. Après la tourmente idéologique de 1968 dans les campagnes nantaises, le groupe des Paysans-Travailleurs prône une contestation syndicale active tandis que la FDSEA** (en rupture avec la FNSEA) se veut critique et attentive aux évolutions coopératives. L'UDSEA** considère l'entreprise coopérative comme un outil économique intéressant mais qui ne doit pas pénaliser les agriculteurs performants par une gestion trop solidariste. Enfin, les agriculteurs proches de la FFA** en contestent l'organisation trop « collectiviste ». Les nouvelles générations d'agriculteurs sont moins sensibles aux valeurs fondamentales du mouvement coopératif, le discours économiste et libéral a pris le pas sur la vision solidariste et associationniste au cours des années quatre-vingts.
