| Summary: | This study aimed to analyze, based on the Theory of Population Ecology, the disappearance of the rural electric cooperatives (RECs) in Brazil. Ecology Theory introduces the external environment as one of the key aspects for the success (or lack thereof) of organizations. This is a longitudinal action research study, covering the period between 2004 and 2013. It is also a case of interventional experimental research, as we analyzed fifteen RECs with researchers attending meetings at the Federal House of Representatives, Senate, ANEEL, MME, and state regulatory agencies and issuing joint reports. We concluded that the norms and actions imposed by ANEEL on the RECs for their regularization carried within them the intention of closing down the cooperatives, thus steering the Brazilian electric sector toward an economic environment based on a monopoly by the big energy distribution companies. |
