SOLIDARITY ECONOMY: A CASE STUDY FROM BOĞATEPE VILLAGE

Abstract

Solidarity economy leads us to think about alternative types of economy in which productive activities meets social needs rather than profitability of the capital. In other words, it can be seen as an utopia against the capitalism and this utopia shows that production and consumption relations could be arranged in different ways. Being based on mutual willingness, beside it enlarges the scope of economic relations, it also allows the contribution of the citizens. Since activities of solidarity are carried out in physical territories, they establish commercial relations in large scale which attributes permanent development of that territory. By providing goods and service production which is based on the contribution of men and women both, populations could participate in their own development. Thus, they can define for themselves the economic programmes that are best suited to their needs and the territories they occupy. Moreover solidarity economy comprises public debate about the mode for economic regulation of a community. So, it builds local, national and international social networks based on consensus and cooperation. As a humanist and democratic economy, solidarity economy could renew our approach to sustainable development. The case study which focuses on the effects of solidaristic tourism on Boğatepe village located in Northeast Turkey, uses interviews with local people to understand the these development effects. The findings imply that economic relations based on solidaristic perspective has provided significant benefits to the community.
