Meer over het boek

The book delves into the complexities of co-operation, examining whether it serves primarily as a social movement or an economic enterprise. It questions whether co-operation aims to challenge capitalism or merely seeks to reform it. Additionally, the text explores whether it embodies a political vision for societal transformation or functions solely as a practical guide for business organization. Through these inquiries, the book offers a nuanced understanding of the multifaceted nature of co-operative efforts.
