For too long, cooperatives have been considered marginal players in
the global economy, and as unrealistic venues for the aspirations
of new and experienced members of the labour force. This
marginalization shows in business, municipal and legal discussions,
and curricula, where cooperative structures are rarely mentioned,
let alone presented as viable options. Cooperatives at Work
presents a range of success stories in employee ownership and
worker owned-and-governed cooperatives. The authors further show
how such firms embody important and highly contested ideals of
democracy, shared equity, and social transformation. Throughout
this volume, the authors present a range of practical lessons,
strategies, and resources based on their pioneering, international
research. This latest volume in The Future of Work series has a
strong ethical stream, consistent with yearnings for more inspired
forms of business revealed in many public opinion polls. The book
is future-oriented, using contemporary as well as historical
examples to teach lessons that are not necessarily time-bound. It
is essential for anyone seeking a window onto the future of
cooperative entrepreneurial practice and grassroots democracy.
