This is the first of two articles analyzing the experience of selfmanagement firms and sectors in Peru and Chile. The origins of the firms and sectors in each country are described, their evolution and modifications, the role of governments and the part played by private support institutions. On the basis of a comparison of the experiences in the two countries conclusions are drawn concerning the conditions in which such attempts in Third World countries may or may not be successful.
