description The traditional approaches of the social economy organizations (SEO) generally focus on their socioeconomic dimension, analyzing them as private non-profit initiatives producing goods and services, in a contingent relation with their environment. In this article, we suggest an approach of SEO based on a double dimension, socio-economical and political. We consider them also as institutions able to act on their context, like collective expressions that are fitting in with the public space in a specific manner and able to interact with the public regulation. The article aims to demonstrate the pertinence of the Polanyian framework in order to consider such double dimension, through the mobilization of two major concepts: on the one hand, “political embededdness” and, on the other hand, the different “forms of integration”, put into light through the adoption of a substantive definition of the economy. Among these “forms of integration”, the one of domestic administration is seldom cited in the literature on Polanyi’s thought. However, domestic administration refers to what the feminist literature calls “domestic work” or “care”, which means the production, mainly assumed by the women, of free goods and services in their family. Domestic administration can be analyzed through the gender lenses, so that it reveals its interest for the analysis of SEO, particularly the ones that are implicated in the home care, where the close relatives are usually mobilized.
