Abstract

The economic crisis in 2008 stimulated two distinct types of economies in the post-industrial city of Maribor: start-ups and cooperatives. They were both introduced and promoted as alternatives to the industrial or service economy. In the article, I compare them to understand the features that influenced their success, continuity, and their mark on young people and society in general. The ethnographic work was devoted to the relationship between the company/ cooperative employee and his/her family, kinship and age, socialisation, the role and meaning of local social and natural environments, perceptions of work, gender relations, missions and company products, legal conditions, the content of initial business training, the types and influences of supportive institutions, the acquisition of basic funds, leisure ideas and practices, the importance of digital technologies and databases, and the share of both business spheres in the formation of urban subcultures. The article also shows the importance of focal place, education and titles, recruitment and training (incubators), business skills, funds, language, growth, and the global movement of capital for the advancement of young entrepreneurs on both sides of the conceptual comparison. The author suggests that academic economics is the most important pillar of neoliberal ideology in Maribor and in shaping national legislation, policies, and funds. It is additionally important with its support to IT start-ups at the Venture Factory (University of Maribor). The crisis encouraged the state to support cooperatives from 2014 to 2018 with sociologists, philosophers, and anthropologists in the background. Later, when crisis was over, the state and municipality withdrew, and the community of cooperatives almost disappeared. This paper is open access and may be further distributed in accordance with the provisions of the CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 HR licence.

2008年经济危机后,社会机构在马里博尔初创企业和合作社运作中的作用
2008年的经济危机刺激了后工业化城市马里博尔两种不同类型的经济:初创企业和合作社。它们都是作为工业经济或服务经济的替代品引入和推广的。在这篇文章中,我将对他们进行比较,以了解影响他们成功、持续发展的特点,以及他们在年轻人和整个社会的影响。民族志工作致力于公司/合作社雇员与其家庭之间的关系、亲属关系和年龄、社会化、当地社会和自然环境的作用和意义、对工作的看法、性别关系、使命和公司产品、法律条件、初始业务培训的内容、支持机构的类型和影响、基本资金的获取、休闲理念和实践、数字技术和数据库的重要性,以及这两个商业领域在城市亚文化形成中的份额。文章还展示了焦点地、教育和头衔、招聘和培训(孵化器)、商业技能、资金、语言、成长和全球资本流动对双方青年企业家发展的重要性的概念比较。作者认为,学术经济学是马里博尔新自由主义意识形态的最重要支柱,也是塑造国家立法、政策和基金的最重要支柱。它对创业工厂(马里博尔大学)的It初创企业的支持也很重要。从2014年到2018年,危机促使国家以社会学家、哲学家、人类学家为背景,支持合作社。后来,当危机结束时,国家和市政当局退出,合作社社区几乎消失了。本文是开放获取的,并可能根据CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 HR许可的规定进一步分发。

期刊介绍: Studia ethnologica Croatica is an annual periodical which publishes peer reviewed articles that contribute to the development of empirical, methodological and theoretical insights and findings in the field of ethnology and cultural anthropology. Articles in related disciplines, as well as those with interdisciplinary and trans-disciplinary scope focusing on cultural phenomena and processes, are also welcomed. The journal is primarily focused on the area of Central and Southeast Europe, but it has a much wider outlook thus bringing together scientists of various and differing views, standpoints and approaches, those who come from the mentioned regions as well as those whose research focuses on them. The journal promotes studies based on ethnography, innovative approach to theoretical concepts and creative cultural criticism, grasping at the same time local reflections of the global processes, particularly cultural transformations and continuities in contemporary societies. Occasionally, a part of the journal is devoted to a particular topic related to certain actual issues or perspectives in various specific subdisciplines of ethnology and cultural anthropology. The journal also publishes book reviews.
