The following text is an answer, among other possible ones, to the question made by Paul Singer (1998) about the reasons that lead or not to the degeneration of a cooperative. The methodology used follows the presuppositions of the constructionists who imagine knowledge as being inter-subjective and historical and that, therefore, deny all essence or truth a priori. Thus, when we verified that there is, in the historiography related to the subject, other notions of cooperativism, beyond of organizational notion, such as the ones that refer to the question, denominated by us the place, or to the question of the cooperative doctrine, the discussion about the possibilities of creating an effective self-managed cooperative takes as its central axis the thematics of the place as conceived by Peter Spink (2000): place of the daily fights that groups go through to survive.Downloads
