For folk economy is understood as a series of beliefs and mental representations of economic topics. These beliefs constitute the framework for the Reasoning of certain economic topics. The aim of this work is to analyze the relevance of the so-called Social and Solidarity Economy. For this goal, this topic is studied carrying out a bibliographical revision based on scientific research, documentary analysis, and hermeneutics. The complete understanding of economic attitudes and, in turn, the economic behaviors go through the understanding of how individuals think in term of the cognitive science. The results point at the fact that the more we know how people reason economics, the more applications for the development of economic Psychology could be done. This fact has a direct application on active social participation and how to manage businesses. Social and Solidary Economy is the democratization of companies and enterprises in which workers are at the same time employees and stakeholders of the company. In this area, the concreteness of all economic Reasoning--that the employees of this kind of initiative must carry out on a daily basis--promotes the cognitive development of these subjects in economic aspects. Social and Solidarity Economy in Hispanic America shows that this financial system is not only sustainable but it develops cognitive development.
