Resumo: Currently the software development is one of the most lucrative economic activities. Great wealth and large corporations, as the Microsoft, were built through the proprietary software development and commercialization. In the last years it occurred a great increase of the free software development, therefore the recent and strong expansion of its use took to be competitive and until being dominant in some areas. Evaluating this process by the economic point of view, the individual behavior of the commercial programmers and effort of company to develop open source projects has been intensive. Why programmers and large companies would invest time and money in a project that could not give an immediate financial return and even not provide a register right of property? The objective of this work is the investigation and discussion of the reasons that lead companies and people to participate in the open source software communities.

Grandes fortunas e corporações, como a Microsoft, se fizeram com o desenvolvimento e a venda de software proprietário. Nos últimos anos, contudo, tem ocorrido grande aumento do interesse no desenvolvimento do software livre, pois a expansão de seu uso o levou a ser competitivo e até dominante em algumas áreas. Do ponto de vista econômico, o comportamento dos programadores e das companhias comerciais empenhadas em projetos de fonte aberta é intenso. Por que programadores e grandes empresas investiriam tempo e dinheiro em um projeto que não poderiam vender, para obter retornos financeiros imediatos, nem poderiam registrar direitos de propriedade sobre seu trabalho? O objetivo deste artigo foi buscar e discutir as razões que levam empresas e profissionais a participar das comunidades de software de fonte aberta. Além disso, estabeleceu- se, por meio do estudo de caso das empresas Red Hat e Grisoft, a diferença entre software livre e gratuito.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Software livre; Comunidade de fonte aberta; Economia de contribuição.Editora Mackenzie2008-07-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/RAM/article/view/48Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 5 No. 1 (2004)Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 5 Núm. 1 (2004)Revista de Administração Mackenzie (Mackenzie Management Review); v. 5 n. 1 (2004)1678-69711518-6776reponame:RAM.
