The current configuration of the Spanish Social Economy is marked by the approval of the Spanish Law 5/2011, of 29th March, on Social Economy, which undoubtedly represented an unprecedented turning point for recognition, visibility, and development, both within the State itself and the European Union. Spain currently ranks among the top European countries in terms of companies whose activity is based on social goals—prevailing over economic capital. In short, all these companies share common initiatives aimed towards internal and external (with society) solidarity, which promote commitment to local development, equal opportunities between men and women, social cohesion, job placement for people at risk of social exclusion, creation of stable and quality employment, work and family life, and sustainability, among other things.
