Entre la competencia y la cooperación: la construcción de redes entre las Organizaciones No Gubernamentales de Desarrollo en Andalucía
Abstract
NGOD are situated in a social space whose «gambling rules» impose the paradox of having to compete for resources at stake and cooperate to influence on outsiders. The “Coordinadora Andaluza of NGOD” (CAONGD) is, therefore, a privileged stage to watch those dynamics. By means of a social networks analysis of the relationships behind the more active NGOD of such coordinating committee, we describe the strategies of those organizations and the construction and circulation of meanings through their networks.
