Abstract

Le imprese cooperative rappresentano, come noto, un modello peculiare che ? molto diverso da quello delle imprese capitalistiche. Tale modello si basa su un insieme di valori, universalmente riconosciuti dall?Alleanza internazionale delle cooperative, come la partecipazione aperta e volontaria, il controllo democratico dei soci, l?autonomia e l?indipendenza, i rapporti con la comunit? locale. Questi valori sono diffusi in tutto il mondo e conferiscono a queste specifiche imprese un "vantaggio cooperativo". Questa ricerca intende verificare sulla base di dati empirici la migliore performance delle imprese cooperative nell?ultimo decennio e pi? in particolare durante la crisi attuale, evidenziando il loro contributo al mantenimento dei livelli occupazionali. Il lavoro ? diviso in due parti. Nella prima parte, vengono sottolineate alcune peculiarit? delle imprese cooperative (riguardo al totale e alle cooperative sociali) soprattutto con riferimento al ruolo dei soci che sono, nella duplice veste di lavoratori e imprenditori, profondamente coinvolti nelle strategie delle imprese. Nella seconda parte della ricerca ? analizzata la performance occupazionale delle imprese cooperative (e di quelle sociali) sulla base di dati regionali desunti dai censimenti Istat 2001 e 2011 e da alcune indagini qualitative.
