“understood in the concept of fair and solidary trade” (BRASIL, 2010). This debate about fair and solidary trade interests us a lot because, as already seen in the review of the literature on Family Farming, Agroecology is one of the main specific themes of the Socioeconomics Knowledge Area, in Macrocategories Market Studies and Social Economy and Solidarity, with fair and solidary trade running through the basic organization of the markets for agricultural and agroecological products, marketed by cooperatives and SSE associations. As in FF, the achievements in the political sphere of the Social and Solidarity Economy go through a socio-historical process of social mobilization. In the 1990s, four events complemented each other as important milestones to consolidate the SSE as a new paradigm, both in society and in academia (Lechat, 2004; Silva, 2020). i) The academic field of SSE In the academic sphere, three works foster the construction of the theoretical bases of the Solidarity Economy, the first, already mentioned in this work, is the most cited work by Paul Singer, Introdução à Economia Solidária (Singer, 2002). Previous to this one, the work entitled A Economia Solidária no Brasil: a autogestão como resposta ao desemprego (Singer & Souza, 2000), also by Paul Singer in association with André Ricardo Souza, encompasses a set of experiences reported by researchers in Brazil. encompassing experiences of different natures reported by several national researchers. Finally, as a result of debates raised at the II National Symposium of the University-Company on Self- Management and Participation, in 1998, the book Economia Solidária: o desafio da democratização das relações de trabalho by Neusa Maria Dal Ri, whose main contribution to the differentiation of traditional cooperativism (this one from the aforementioned cooperativism law), from the cooperativism of practical experiences and social movements (Silva, 2020). Today, the Solidarity Economy, in the academy, presents itself as a paradigmatic field of scientific investigation, in the dialectic with practical experiences, social movements and the governmental agenda. About this academic production, it presents results that, even with the predominance of articles about experiences. On the one hand, the field of solidarity economy presents conceptual aspects such as self-management, associativism, solidarity as a productive factor and, on the other hand, criticisms about the theoretical consistency or social relevance of the experiences in this field are still latent (Silva, 2020). The Social and Solidarity Economy incorporating the Social Economy into the framework of the Solidarity Economy, currently consists of a set of economic and social practices, production of goods and services, solidarity finance, exchanges, fair and solidarity trade, social currencies, among others. others. In the union between theory and praxis, SSE brings together different currents that influence thinking about the role and place of SSE as a transforming field of the capitalist mode of production (Morais and Bacic, 2020). Latin American academic production, which combines the Social and Solidarity Economy in a single concept, has been concentrated in the last decade and has been consolidated, as well as in FF, in the last 5 years, with 58 articles between the years 2016-2020, against 14 articles from 2011-2015, totalling 74 articles in indexed journals, with open access. Twenty-seven categories of analysis related to the articles were found, with 11 of these categories concentrating more than 60% of the articles (58 articles), which shows a concentration of production in the area in areas related to the social sciences (Economics; Social Sciences; Industrial Relations Labor; Management) and environmental sciences (Environmental Studies; Public Environmental Occupation Health; Environmental Science; Green Sustainable Science Technology). In all, the 73 articles received 233 citations in these 5 years, excluding self-citations. Among these articles, 182 citations correspond to the 73 articles themselves, also excluding self-citations. This means, like Family Farming, that there is cohesion among the scientists who publish on the Social and Solidarity Economy in Latin America and Brazil. In a detailed reading of the 73 filtered articles, 18 were excluded, with 8 of them (~47%) not having the Social and Solidarity Economy as their main theme, 5 of them (~29%) with an area of study without considering Latin America, 2 of them (~12%) were duplicate articles, and 2 of them (~12%) were not included among indexed journals. At the end of applying the exclusion criteria, a total of 56 indexed articles were obtained, with the Social and Solidarity Economy as an object of study, in Latin American countries, from 2016-2020 and open access. j) Content analysis and categorization of valid ESS articles As in Family Farming, the same 5 levels of incidence categories were established in all articles: Study Area, Knowledge Area, Macrocategory, Microcategory and transversally evaluated as a criterion of relevance, the total citations and per year. In the Study Area, the Iberoamerica area was exceptionally considered due to the volume of productions in the relationship between the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America. Despite the significantly smaller volume of articles in relation to FF, the diversity of countries and Study Areas is slightly greater. These were divided into the regions of the country, identifying the absence of productions from the © 2022 Global Journals Volume XXII Issue IV Version I 7 ( ) Global Journal of Human Social Science - Year 2022 E Systematic Review of the Literature on Family Farming and the Social and Solidarity Economy in Brazil and Latin America
