Existe un consenso generalizado en que la sociedad civil marroquí ha emergido a partir de los años 80. Los motivos explicativos de este fenómeno son básicamente dos: político el primero y económico el segundo. En la actualidad las relaciones entre el movimiento asociativo y el Estado se encuentran en el proceso de cambio que va desde el marco de dominación tradicional hacia otro de cooperación. En este sentido debe recordarse que el movimiento asociativo en su forma actual es muy reciente.

There has not been a uniform attitude to definition of third sector as well as of social economy in the Czech Republic yet. The accepted term is civil sector including non-governmental non-for-profit organizations. Social economy is a new term. Social enterprises as subjects in third sector (civil sector or social economy) are separated from state, autonomous, preferring social aspects in economy activities. In Czech conditions, social enterprise is a type of cooperative, which employs disadvantaged people. Cooperatives were established by the Business Law.
