摘要：The Social Economy organizations, whatever their legal nature, have principles and values deeply linked with the territory, which emerge from their own capacity of development and its action reverses on this spatial framework and the functional and geographical interconnections that may be established from it. Their contribution to the creation of employment, the ability to generate socio-economic activities related directly and specifically to cover the needs of the territories, its impact on the risks of exclusion, its ability to put in value its own territorial identity, among other contributions, transform the institutions of "Social Economy" as agents involved in the regional process. In that territory, understood as a dynamic framework in continuous evolution, social changes impact directly, being the Social Economy, due to its specific characteristics, a viable proposal to carry these changes and promote the sustainable territorial development. Andalusia, autonomous community with the highest rate of unemployment in the whole country, is also the most representative of the Social Economy in Spain. Its behavior, in these days of crisis is showing a less unfavorable answer than the traditional capitalist economy taking into account the destruction of employment, especially between the women. In this paper we show, starting from the analysis of its main variables, the Social Economy as an additional bet that contributes to the improvement of the productivity of the territories and the social welfare, especially in disadvantaged areas such as the Andalusian case.
