This theoretical assumption is questioned based on the downturn pressures that may weaken cooperatives’ social performance in favor of economic performance. This degeneration process (Cornforth, et al., 1998) is countered by some traditional cooperatives that have developed regeneration dynamics. The aim of our study is to explore how small and medium cooperatives face degeneration and develop regeneration dynamics in periods of crisis. To fulfil the objective of the paper four small and medium Basque and Breton cooperatives are studied in depth.https://hal.science/hal-01414168https://hal.science/hal-01414168v1/file/NVSQ-AR-15-0223.R2TRACK%20CHANGES%2008%2007%202016.pdfArticle de journal | Aldizkari bateko artikuluavignette : https://www.bilketa.eus/in/rest/Thumb/image?id=ark:/27020/hal-01414168&mat=articleNumengArchive ouverte HAL | HAL artxibo irekianon-for profit organizationscooperativesdegenerationregenerationcrisis[SHS.GESTION]Humanities and Social Sciences/Business administrationCooperative Dynamics During the Financial Crisis: Evidence From Basque and Breton Case Studies
