Abstract: Today, some cooperatives are called on to play a key role in the development of collaborative networks; this is especially the case for social clusters. First, cooperatives seem to be well suited to manage a network of local actors. Secondly and conversely, clusters can participate in the development of cooperatives. These complex relationships between cooperatives and collaborative networks are clear in the case of the French "territorial clusters for economic cooperation".
