內容簡介

This volume collects research investigating the co-operative business model (and mutual enterprises), and its sustainability and resilience. The five key research questions addressed by the volume are: the factors that cause a co-operative to abandon its principles, values; and business model and transform into an investor owned firm; how co-operatives measure and communicate the true value of memberships; whether there are best practice examples of co-operative boards that provide lessons for future co-operative business models; how co-operatives may successfully participate in financial markets without compromising principles, values, and business model; and the relative value and viability to alternatives to the "one-member-one-vote" principle normally associated with co-operatives. The research draws on examples from different sectors and different countries and is presented in 28 chapters organized into sections basically organized in accord with the above-mentioned issues.
