Book Description
Excerpt from The Modern Farm Cooperative Movement Many interests and individuals having no knowledge of, or means to acquaint themselves of the facts, have assumed this attitude. The chief objection urged against socialism is that it destroys private initiative, deprives the community of competition as between individuals and industries and secures profits to be distributed for the common good of all. In other words, the incentive to achieve for self is taken away. The farm cooperative movement incorporates nothing of this purpose. In fact, it is the exact reverse. Its central purpose is to distribute the earnings or savings it makes through more efficient and direct methods of distribution and marketing on a patronage dividend basis, which is to say that the individuals furnishing the most patronage or business to the cooperative association secure the most in earnings, profits or savings, as one cares to designate them. It is merely a tool in the hands of the farmers and the producers to shorten the line from the farm to the consumer but, at the same time, preserve the essential features of the Service now rendered by our marketing system.

The Cooperative Movement
Author: Richard C. WilliamsPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 131703726X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Richard Williams surveys the history of the cooperative movement from its origins in the 18th century and deals with the theory of cooperation, as contrasted with the 'Standard Economic Model', based on competition. The book contains the results of field studies of a number of successful cooperatives both in the developed and developing world. It includes insights from personal interviews of cooperative members and concludes by considering the successes and challenges of the cooperative movement as an alternative to the global neo-colonialism and imperialism that now characterizes free-market capitalist approaches to globalization. The book considers democratic and local control of essential economic activities such as the production, distribution, and retailing of goods and services. It suggests that cooperative approaches to these economic activities are already reducing poverty and resulting in equitable distributions of wealth and income without plundering the resources of developing countries.
For All the People

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 826
Book Description
The survival of indigenous communities and the first European settlers alike depended on a deeply cooperative style of living and working, based around common lands, shared food and labor. Cooperative movements proved integral to the grassroots organizations and struggles challenging the domination of unbridled capitalism in America's formative years. Holding aloft the vision for an alternative economic system based on cooperative industry, they have played a vital, and dynamic role in the struggle to create a better world. Seeking to reclaim a history that has remained largely ignored by most historians, this dramatic and stirring account examines each of the definitive American cooperative movements for social change - farmer, union, consumer, and communalist - that have been all but erased from collective memory. Focusing far beyond one particular era, organization, leader, or form of cooperation, For All the People documents the multigenerational struggle of the American working people for social justice. With an expansive sweep and breathtaking detail, the chronicle follows the American worker from the colonial workshop to the modern mass-assembly line, ultimately painting a vivid panorama of those who built the United States and those who will shape its future. John Curl, with over forty years of experience as both an active member and scholar of cooperatives, masterfully melds theory, practice, knowledge and analysis, to present the definitive history from below of cooperative America.
