The economic participation of members in the Mexican cooperative companies
Abstract
The third cooperative principle is one of the most important of those recognized by the International Cooperative Alliance, since it talks about social capital and how it should be integrated through the members, describes how they should invest in their cooperative and how they must distribute their surpluses, thereby reinforcing the need and duty of members to contribute capital for their own business and also do so with fairness and equity. However, it is observed that in many countries cooperative companies are increasingly open to the market, expanding the margin of their operations with risk capital and incorporating the participation of non-users or non-members to the social capital of the companies, reaching occasions to allow that the distribution of results be made in function of the economic contributions and not by the exercise of the cooperative activity, violating with it the principles of equality, equity and solidarity.
