Summary :

From our perspective, Solidarity Economy is a strategy of economic liberation for the popular classes and for human societies as a whole, which uses the concept of ‘well living’ as a reference for the ethical exercise of public and private freedoms. This perspective understands Solidarity Economy as a way of living, as an economic system in construction, as an axis of struggle for the overcoming of exploitation and economic domination and for the construction of a new society, ecologically sustainable, economically fair, politically democratic and recreated, day by day, on the basis of intercultural dialogue.

This paper focuses on the methodological processes of construction of Solidarity Economy, based on the constitution of collaborative networks and solidarity economic circuits, with the purpose of supporting the reconstruction of supply chains and reorganizing, in a democratic way, the economic flows that permeate territories and networks.
