Collective Courage
Author: Jessica Gordon Nembhard
Publisher: Penn State Press
ISBN: 0271064269
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
In Collective Courage, Jessica Gordon Nembhard chronicles African American cooperative business ownership and its place in the movements for Black civil rights and economic equality. Not since W. E. B. Du Bois’s 1907 Economic Co-operation Among Negro Americans has there been a full-length, nationwide study of African American cooperatives. Collective Courage extends that story into the twenty-first century. Many of the players are well known in the history of the African American experience: Du Bois, A. Philip Randolph and the Ladies' Auxiliary to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, Nannie Helen Burroughs, Fannie Lou Hamer, Ella Jo Baker, George Schuyler and the Young Negroes’ Co-operative League, the Nation of Islam, and the Black Panther Party. Adding the cooperative movement to Black history results in a retelling of the African American experience, with an increased understanding of African American collective economic agency and grassroots economic organizing. To tell the story, Gordon Nembhard uses a variety of newspapers, period magazines, and journals; co-ops’ articles of incorporation, minutes from annual meetings, newsletters, budgets, and income statements; and scholarly books, memoirs, and biographies. These sources reveal the achievements and challenges of Black co-ops, collective economic action, and social entrepreneurship. Gordon Nembhard finds that African Americans, as well as other people of color and low-income people, have benefitted greatly from cooperative ownership and democratic economic participation throughout the nation’s history.

Small-scale Industrial Producer Co-operatives in Developing Countries
Author: Peter Abell
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
The growing realization in the Third World that impoverished countries cannot rely upon flows of aid from the economically developed world has led to widespread attempts to forge concepts of social and economic organization which draw upon their own resources and talents. It is not onlytechnology that must be appropriate; so must social and economic institutions. This study attempts to explore the role which industrial-producer co-operatives might play in the process of socio-economic development. While the record of industrial-producer co-operatives is not impressive, the reasons for this lack of performance are controversial: is it attributable to thenature of the organizations, or to the socio-economic environment within which they have to operate? The volume attempts to address such questions, on the basis of research which was conducted in detail in four countries - India, Peru, Senegal, and Indonesia, on co-operatives with fewer than 100 members.
