This dissertation presents an analysis on the process of participation of rural producers in agricultural cooperatives, taking as reference the existent heterogeneity in the social picture of those organizations that supposedly take to the appearance of problems of collective action, as suggested by the Theory of the Rational Choice. Therefore it was looked for to identify and to understand strategies of collective action in cooperatives and to analyze the behavior of different existent groups in those organizations and how to work with the complex administration form and control, given the difficulties imposed more and more by the market demanding and competitive. Through a discussion based in the literature on participation and cooperativism, it can associate it to the concerning discussions to the collective action and institutions as well as to the studies about trust, cooperation and valorization of social capital, shown as potential instruments for solution of the dilemmas of collective action.
