Abstract

This article proposes that the cooperative economic form, in Brazil, is a means determined by the Federal Constitution for the State to promote socioeconomic balance. State intervention cannot be limited to neutralizing market failures, but on the contrary, by constitutional order, the State is given the duty to support and encourage the cooperative economic form to provide yet another tool for citizens to participate in free competition. In this way, it is guaranteed, as a fundamental right, that the citizen has the possibility to get rid of hyposufficiency and become an agent within the scope of free competition, thus also acting for the achievement of the common social wellbeing.
