a emancipaÇÃo social por meio da economia solidÁria: o caso da conforja como uma concreta possibilidade / the social emancipation through the solidarity economy: the conforja case as a concrete possibility

In attention to the notorious inequalities generated by the imbalance in the distribution of capital, especially in the late of the twentieth century and in the beginning of the twenty-first century, as well as because it is a theme that generally does not attract the attention of law professionals, especially legislators, this study aims to verify if the solidarity economy can be considered an emancipatory tool. For this, a literature search is performed with deductive method and monographic procedure. In order to prove the hypothesis initially mooted, it is analyzed the case of Conforja and some of its social consequences. Finally, it is highlighted some positive aspects of solidarity enterprises and it is concluded that the solidarity economy may be a counter-hegemonic alternative from the perspective of Boaventura de Sousa Santos and therefore being a promoting social emancipation.
