Replete with case studies, Waking the Asian Pacific Cooperative
Potential applies a novel theoretical framework to aid in
understanding meaningful change in cooperative firms, mutual firms,
collectives, and communes, focusing in particular on the
underexamined Asia Pacific region. It explores the common, albeit
competing, objectives of transformational cooperatives that deliver
a range of social benefits and corporative coops where the
cooperative exhibits the characteristics of a competitive investor
firm. The book provides examples of successful cooperatives in
eleven countries across the Asia Pacific and reviews the
theoretical framework of cooperatives, including issues pertaining
to socio-economic, politico-legal, and domestic and international
factors. Waking the Asian Pacific Co-operative Potential provides
early-career researchers and graduate students with a systematic
resource of cooperatives in the Asia Pacific, highlighting core
lessons from case studies regarding the ideal role of cooperatives
in a modern economy and on the enabling factors of the role of the
state, the market potential for scale-up, the mitigation of
poverty, and civil society.
