This month, Aitziber Etxezarreta and Javier Arrieta discuss research, cooperativism and employment in a new edition of Solasaldiak.
Aitziber Etxezarreta Etxarri is Director of Gezki, Institute of Cooperative Law and Social Economy, and Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Economics at the UPV/EHU. For his part, Javier Arrieta Idiakez teaches at the University of Deusto as Professor of Labour and Social Security Law.
In their conversation, they begin by discussing the current state of research in the Basque Country, and more particularly at university level.
They then discuss the co-operative world, which they both know well: its importance for the country, its characteristics and its integration into today's society.
Finally, they discuss what is understood today as ‘quality employment’.
