A Global History of Consumer Co-operation since 1850: Movements and Businesses de Mary Hilson

A Global History of Consumer Co-operation since 1850: Movements and Businesses: Studies in Global Social History, cartea 28

Mary Hilson, Silke Neunsinger, Greg Patmore
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 iul 2017
With contributions from over 30 scholars, A Global History of Consumer Co-operation surveys the origins and development of the consumer co-operative movement from the mid-nineteenth century until the present day. The contributions, covering the history of co-operation in different national contexts in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Australasia, illustrate the wide variety of forms that consumer co-operatives have taken; the different political, economic and social contexts in which they have operated; the ideological influences on their development; and the reasons for their expansion and decline at different times. The book also explores the connections between co-operatives in different parts of the world, challenging assumptions that the story of global co-operation can be traced exclusively to the 1844 Rochdale Co-operative Society.

Recenzii

"Anyone working on the cooperative movement will have this book on their bookshelves. It very much assembles the state of the art in the history of consumer cooperation." - Stefan Berger, "What is New in the History of Social Movements?", in: Moving the Social, Volume 59 (2018), pp. 115-127 [DOI: 10.13154/mts.59.2018.115-127]
"By illuminating the divergent histories of consumer cooperative movements in industrialized countries in Europe, North America, and Asia, A Global History makes an important contribution to scholarship. [...] Hilson and her collaborators will remain widely read for decades." - Carl J. Strikwerda, in: International Review of Social History 63:1 (2018), pp. 127–142 [DOI:10.1017/S0020859017000670]
"The book is not uncritical of divisions between co-ops over markets, or of the tensions between cheap goods, colonial production, and ethical matters, or of failures such as the Berkeley co-op. Like its subject, this book is unwieldy, yet worldly; its ambitions are greater than the sum of its parts, but those parts are very rewarding in their detail—and those ambitions are inestimably worthy, enduring, and global." - Lawrence Black, in: Economic History Review 71:2 (2018), pp. 692-694
