In celebration of cooperatives' contributions to community
development processes and outcomes worldwide, the United Nations
designated 2012 as the Year of the Cooperative. Today, as in the
past, cooperatives have proved effective in bringing people and
organizations together to accomplish a broad array of goals related
to fostering social and economic innovation, protecting communities
against poor living and working conditions, and promoting a better
quality of life. Analytically, as both a movement and as a business
model, cooperatives hold much potential for generating the types of
synergies, collaboration, and productive and social processes that
enable community development to thrive in a variety of local,
regional and global contexts. This collection of articles
chronicles new developments in the ways in which cooperatives are
used in a diverse array of community contexts. They offer insight
as to what these changes mean, both empirically and theoretically,
for community development in the decades to come. This book is a
compilation of articles published in the journal Community
Development.
