BARRAZA GONZALEZ, Carlos Eduardo. Cooperation, citizen and public policies (time banks and social currency). Estud. polít. (Méx.) [online]. 2017, n.41, pp.55-79. ISSN 0185-1616.
Cooperation and its manifestation in time banks and social currencies, are the themes of this text. Both systems of exchange have a community character and are distinguished because in the first case, they exchange personal services, and in the other, goods through local circulation currencies. Through examples put into practice in Spain and other parts of the world, the author points out that this type of initiatives develops social relations and equality between different socio-economic strata, in order to solve some problems of the market economy.
Keywords : Cooperation; human development; economy; time banks; social currency.
