In the common vision, associations should primarily act as a democratic deliberation in order to collectively redefine the common good and rethink the organization of the social game. However, associations play an undeniable economic role, particularly by buying and / or selling products.

Associations may be classified according to many factors including, for example, their Financing, their role of market regulation and also of employer, based of their place in the different typologies.
