Abstract
L’ancrage territorial constitue, avec le fonctionnement démocratique et la solidarité économique, l’une des caractéristiques majeures de l’économie sociale et solidaire (ESS). Loin de postuler une territorialité spontanée de l’ESS, nous proposons de réintégrer l’observation des dynamiques d’ESS dans les jeux de complémentarité, coopération ou concurrence propres aux processus de constructions territoriales. Le statut de l’ESS dans les transformations globales des modes de coordination des systèmes productifs territoriaux est d’abord analysé. Deux pistes de recherche concernant l’ESS et la gouvernance territoriale sont ensuite déclinées. La première concerne l’institutionnalisation de l’ESS en tant que secteur de l’action publique territoriale. La deuxième interroge le postulat d’une congruence parfaite entre le tournant horizontal et territorial de l’action publique et les objectifs affichés de l’ESS.
Like democratic management and economic solidarity, local embeddedness is one of the main features of the social and solidarity economy. Far from arguing that the social and solidarity economy is naturally embedded in the community, we propose to bring the observed dynamics of the social and solidarity economy back into the complementarity, cooperation or competition specific to the processes of territorial constructions. The role of the social and solidarity economy in the global transformation of the coordination of territorial productive systems is then examined. Two lines of research concerning the social and solidarity economy and territorial governance are presented. The first concerns the institutionalisation of the social and solidarity economy as a sector of local community action. The second questions the premise that the horizontal and territorial transformation of local community action and the declared objectives of the social and solidarity economy are perfectly compatible.
