Abstract

The new approach to territorial development «from below» based on endogenous processes and local dimension, is based upon the participation of economic and social agents in the transformation processes of the territory to ensure further economic and social impact. Cooperativism represents a model with high capacity to strengthen economic activity in the territory, generate quality jobs, promote local entrepreneurial culture and encourage the improvement of the level and quality of life of the community, setting the population into the territory. There are clear convergences and potential synergies between these two approaches. Coperatives, particularly the agrarian, due to their strong social links and territorial anchoring, are key corporate form for territorial development in rural areas.
