Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present the programme of business schools in Andalusia from their creation to the present. We will also present an empirical study of the programme, taking 106 companies as a sample. Studying Business Schools helps us to analyse the phenomenon of business incubation from a territorial point of view and to state that the incubation period is decisive in the formation of certain companies that would not otherwise have become established, thus directly and indirectly generating employment. It can be seen that there is a greater degree of recognition in the market of companies that are hosted compared to those that are not.

Abstract
The organizations representing actors in the social economy have been the first who, noting the characteristics they share and that make them different from more conventional companies, have claimed a formal recognition by the legislators, allowing hereinafter to make clear their contribution to economic and social development and thus justify public policies fitting to this fact. European institutions have expressed on several occasions demanding that States and the European Union include social economy in its legislation and policies, and that they establish a legal framework wherein a third sector of the economy is recognized. The recognition of the social economy or solidarity sectors and minimal regulation thereof in constitutional texts is an increasingly noticeable trend in European and Latin-American legislative systems. Their content varies according to the States, but in any case, the social economy is defined by its principles and values, present in certain organizations such as cooperatives, mutual societies, associations or foundations, and its representative organization is recognized, and its promotion is confirmed because of their contribution to general interest.

Abstract
Cooperative societies are among the most dynamic components of the Social Economy. This article aims to verify whether this dynamism is also reflected in their relationship with macroeconomic variables like GDP. The initial hypothesis is that there is a substitution effect between the jobs created by the cooperative societies and the evolution of Spain’s GDP in the 1995-2008 period (quarterly data). The results do not permit confirmation of the apparent independence of the graphs for GDP and employment in cooperative firms. However, employment in cooperative firms was found to show greater strength and stability than the dynamics of total employment in the Spanish economy. These findings must be qualified by reference to various factors, including changes in GDP or the specific period for which the comparison was made.

Econlit Keywords: C810, J210, J310, J540
Abstract
Are cooperatives societies a more flexible form of organization for confronting recession and maintaining employment levels? Some research has shown that the impact of the crisis on unemployment seems weaker in cooperatives than in conventional companies: cooperative societies are better than others at maintaining job levels during periods of economic recession, as they adjust wages and working hours to the new situation and act as a refuge for some of the jobs that are destroyed in other companies. The aim of this research is to analyse the features of employment in cooperative societies that make them less sensitive to economic cycles, as well as a more stable source of employment. The main source of the data used is the Continuous Sample of Working Lives prepared by the Spanish Social Security in 2010 (MCVL2010). The analysis compares changes of employment in two groups of people, those working in cooperatives and in conventional companies. The situation of these two groups of people is compared in the periods before and during the economic crisis.
