Abstract

This study presents a comparative analysis of the findings of the international research project RESCuE project – Patterns of Resilience during Socioeconomic Crises among Households in Europe (VII UE FP). Presentation of differences and similarities in defining and understanding the concept of social economy and its background in different European countries should help to identify and understand the kind of patterns of Social Economy presented in the second part of the paper. These patterns and their background create a frame for the eco-system of social economy entities in every country. Fieldwork findings (conducted in partner countries) present the everyday practice of social economy entities in researched communities and their specific ecosystems of relations, dependencies, reciprocities, and how these factors influence individuals, households, and communities' resilience. It also gives an opportunity to present the advantages and limitations of specific entities acting in given ecosystems based on legal, socio-political, and cultural backgrounds.
