Experiences of Social and solidary economy in Argentina
Abstract
In this article we try to outline briefly the main ideas of the Social and Solidary Economy (SSE) offer and to describe some of the experiences developed in our country that can shape spaces of this alternative economy. Departing from multiple contributions, both theoretical and practical, we take those ideas that we share and allow us to illustrate this offer. We work specially the discussion on the joint of an alternative economy inside the dominant system. We include two experiences (recovered enterprises and "trueque", the argentine massive experiencie exchange with Social Money) that are usually mentioned inside the field of the SSE, and a third one (Frenapo, National Front against the Poverty) that is not usually included in this field.
