Abstract

The connections between organizations, through their main decision-making bodies, create links known as Board Interlocking, with effects that extend beyond the operational sphere. Based on Social Network Analysis and interviews, this study investigates these connections and their implications in cooperatives in Southern Brazil. The motivations for the phenomenon were compared with the reasons traditionally presented in the literature, and real cases are transcribed to demonstrate worrying impacts on governance and democratic equity in cooperatives. The results confirmed the existence of interconnections in cooperatives and demonstrated their use as part of a controversial strategy for maintaining political and institutional power.
