    Este trabajo presenta la nueva red científica denominada "Grupo de estudio en derecho cooperativo europeo" (SGECOL: Study Group on European Cooperative Law), así como el proyecto "Los principios del derecho cooperativo europeo" (PECOL: Principles of European Cooperative Law), que SGECOL ha escogido como su primera actividad investigadora. SGECOL es un grupo europeo de estudiosos del derecho cooperativo que se fundó en noviembre 2011 en Trento (Italia), en la sede del European Research Institute on Cooperative and Social Enterprises (Euricse). El objetivo general de SGECOL es el de llevar a cabo una labor de investigación comparativa del derecho cooperativo en Europa para así fomentar un mayor conocimiento y comprensión del derecho cooperativo entre los juristas, académicos y gobernantes, a nivel nacional, europeo e internacional. SGECOL pretende alcanzar este objetivo a través de distintos proyectos relacionados con el derecho cooperativo, empezando por la redacción de PECOL.

    PECOL tendrá el formato de disposiciones jurídicas acompañadas de comentarios explicativos.

    Se elaborarán a partir del derecho cooperativo existente en Europa, prestando una atención

    This paper presents both a new scientific network named “Study Group on European Cooperative Law” (SGECOL), and the “Principles of European Cooperative Law” (PECOL) project, which SGECOL has identified as its first research activity.

    SGECOL is a European group of cooperative law scholars, established in Trento (Italy), at the European Research Institute on Cooperative and Social Enterprises (Euricse), in November 2011. SGECOL’s general objective is to conduct comparative research on cooperative law in Europe, thus promoting increased awareness and understanding of cooperative law within the legal, academic and governmental communities at national, European and international level. SGECOL intends to achieve this objective through various research initiatives on coop- erative law, beginning with the drafting of PECOL.

    PECOL will take the form of legal provisions accompanied by explanatory comments. They will be developed on the basis of the existing cooperative law in Europe, focusing in particular on six European jurisdictions (Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK). PECOL, however, will not simply summarize and describe the common core of European national cooperative laws. Going beyond that, the project aims to present the main general provisions through which – in the authors’ view – cooperative law should be formulated to provide cooperatives with a definite and distinct legal identity vis-a-vis other business organizations.

    The PECOL project does not serve a single specific purpose, still less is its goal to impose harmonization on national cooperative laws. PECOL will be a scientific and scholarly work, capable of serving many potential functions, depending on the users’ particular needs.
