Sumario:In recent years, we have witnessed a great global economic crisis that has challenged the mechanisms and concepts on which the market economy and traditional companies are based. Many companies have failed and this has led to an increase in the number of unemployed. All this led us to reflect on the need to find alternatives to the classic mechanisms of the economy and, above all, on the importance of focusing on a more supportive and more sustainable economy based, above all, on peak-physical wellbeing of employees and end users. Therefore, our focus has been on the social enterprises in the Calabria territory which, according to our data, have reacted better to the economic and financial crisis of recent years compared to traditional companies; In particular, we have analyzed the situation of the third sector, especially social cooperatives, when compared with associations and capital companies.
