Producer Cooperatives as a New Mode of Production(Book)

Thanks to Rudy Torres for sharing. Certainly, there is a need to study new forms of production. With the inability of traditional politics and politicians internationally not being able to come up with viable solutions to a growing economic crisis, there is a growing movement to advance theories and practices for a new economy.

This movement, is one that is based on rethinking the nature of ownership and rethinking the definition of “growth” as a basis for gauging whether there is progress.
