Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Consumers Co-Operative Societies The excellent translation of Professor Gide's "Les Societes Cooperatives de consommation" which follows is the result of the labors of the staff of the Co-operative Reference Library, Dublin, Ireland. The present editor, in preparing the book for an American public, has, by permission of the fellow-co-operators in Dublin, eliminated such of the English footnotes as were of interest principally to British readers or has incorporated them in his own. He has also moved up into the text many of Professor Gide's notes added by him at the time of the translation into English. Therefore at present there are only the two kinds of footnotes: those of the original author and those of the American editor. Without the painstaking work of the translators and those who assisted them, this American edition would probably not have been undertaken at this time. Without Professor Gide's help in reading through the proofs and making several valuable suggestions, the book would not have the contemporary value it now possesses. Finally, Dr. Warbasse, in contributing a preface and a chapter on "Co-operation in the United States," has made this book, always indispensible to the student of European Co-operation, an essential to those who are studying the Co-operative Movement in the United States. The present editor is honoured in being able to append a few additional American notes and to prepare this edition for the publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Consumers' Cooperation Until the war, no speaker on Consumers' Cooperation could escape a question as pertinent as it was monoto nous: Why has success been so brilliant and con tinuous in England and other European countries while result-s are so meager in the United States? For the first time this form of Cooperation has become a serious working class interest. Extensively and in tensively it is on a scale which makes possible if not an answer, at least a more confident prophecy that we are to take our place in this world attempt to make democratizing industry something more than a phrase. I am far from giving it as a primary or even a sec ondary reason why cooperation so long halted in this country, but it has been sorely hampered by muddling together economic activities which have very little in common. A state of mind in which Profit-sharing, Labor Copartnership, Citrous Fruit Companies, Co operative Creameries and the like, are identical with Consumers' Cooperation, is one in which progress is embarrassed.

This book was released on 2018-09-07 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Consumers' Co-Operative Movement in Illinois In Part I, a historical summary Of the co-operative movements of Illinois has been made. This section traces each case in some detail from its inception up to the present time (or through the period Of its Operation). Spurious co-operatives are given attention in Part II. In Part III a cross-section Of the Illinois consumers' co-operative movement is presented, which shows the facts at the time the societies were visited in the summer Of 192 3. In this sec tion stress has been laid on the problems Which have confronted the consumers' co - operatives, as well as upon the success or failure Of the co-operatives in meeting these problems. Somewhat in contrast to the rest of the book and to other writings on co-operation are the case studies which form Appendix A. In these studies each of the existing Illinois co - operatives has been considered in its local setting, the attempt having been to give the situation as it appears to an Observer. Another section to which attention is called is Appendix C, in which the discussion centers on the status Of CO - Operative education in America.

Download or read book The Consumers Place in Society Classic Reprint written by Percy Redfern and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Consumers Place in Society The lectures were given to co-operative and labour audiences, and the lecturer was happiest when (as in South Wales) the schools included militant young men from left-wing trade councils. He did not want to impede or distract Labour in its fight but he did want the young men to contend not for sections but for the whole Of the people, the consumers. Apart from the struggle between owners farming out possessions for profit and unions to sell labour at the highest possible price, he stood for a third party potentially greater than either - a party organised in a reconstructive movement leading to a new industry based on the peoples' needs, under the ownership and control Of the people in their masses. But while claiming the chief place for that third party he did not forget that the million wide ranks Of Labour are drawn from the flesh and blood Of the common democratic household whereas the capitalist mansion is another establishment altogether. In View Of the miners' stand for the British domestic consumer and in view, also, Of the very interesting experiment in co-operation between the municipalities, the Building Guild and the CO Operative Wholesale and co-operative Insurance Societies now proceeding, he is glad to emphasise again this common bond. For the idea Of his opening sentence the author is indebted to Mankind in the Making, by Mr. H. G. Wells - the book which Mr. Shaw proposed to dramatise by means Of a spout discharging the babies! He believes this to be the only due acknowledgment not to be found in the text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Co-Operation: The Hope of the Consumer All my life I have felt that the consumer was at an unfair disadvantage in buying. When, for eight years beginning in my teens, I owned and ran a country store, I never quite saw the equity of concealed profits which, on some things, were several times the percentage they were on others. In my twenty-odd years of advertising and publishing, and several years of editing a magazine devoted to sales promotion, I have always thought that the final consumer was treated too much as a mere incident, that he had too little voice. Always in my own buying I have felt a discontent with my total ignorance as to how much I was paying the mer chant for the distributive service he performed for me. Perhaps he was getting but five per cent of the retail price, perhaps sixty per cent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Global History of Consumer Co operation since 1850 written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-07-03 with total page 877 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With contributions from over 30 scholars, A Global History of Consumer Co-operation surveys the origins and development of the consumer co-operative movement from the mid-nineteenth century until the present day. The contributions, covering the history of co-operation in different national contexts in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Australasia, illustrate the wide variety of forms that consumer co-operatives have taken; the different political, economic and social contexts in which they have operated; the ideological influences on their development; and the reasons for their expansion and decline at different times. The book also explores the connections between co-operatives in different parts of the world, challenging assumptions that the story of global co-operation can be traced exclusively to the 1844 Rochdale Co-operative Society.
