A term long associated with European labor and leftist organizations and connotations of democratic forms of economic organization. Currently used in Canada and Europe and the United Nations to refer to a category similar to, but somewhat broader than the U.S. conception of a Nonprofit sector. Usually included in the social economy are associations, cooperatives, foundations and mutuals.
