Synopsis

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 only technology 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 the nature 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. Readership: economists in development economics; sociologists; particularly those interested in the Third World.
