Summary/Abstract: With the effect of the structural crises experienced by global capitalism, the existence of cooperatives has started to be discussed and brought to the agenda again. In this context, it is essential that the cooperatives are organized in accordance with the new period and that the problems arising from management are determined and resolved. At this point, the corporate governance debate, which has been on the agenda especially since the 1990s, can be considered as a process that is likely to solve these problems of cooperatives. Along with this article study, which was carried out with the literature review method, suggestions for researchers who will conduct field research are also given. The study consists of two parts. In the first part, the concepts of cooperatives and corporate governance are discussed theoretically. In the second part, a theoretical discussion is carried out on the relationship between the theories and principles considered in relation to corporate governance and the principles of cooperatives. As a result, there is a lot of similarity between the principles and theories of corporate governance and the principles of cooperatives.
