Book Storefront Revolution

Download or read book Storefront Revolution written by Craig Cox and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1960s, the cooperative networks of food stores, restaurants, bakeries, bookstores, and housing alternatives were part counterculture, part social experiment, part economic utopia, and part revolutionary political statement. The co-ops gave activists a place where they could both express themselves and accomplish at least some small-scale changes. By the mid-1970s, dozens of food co-ops and other consumer- and work-owned enterprises were operating throughout the Twin Cities, and an alternative economic network - with a People's Warehouse at its hub - was beginning to transform the economic landscape of the metropolitan Minneapolis-St. Paul area. However, these co-op activists could not always agree among themselves on their goals. Craig Cox, a journalist who was active in the co-op movement, here provides the first book to look at food co-ops during the 1960s and 1970s. He presents a dramatic story of hope and conflict within the Minneapolis network, one of the largest co-op structures in the country. His "view from the front" of the "Co-op War" that ensued between those who wanted personal liberation through the movement and those who wanted a working-class revolution challenges us to re-thing possiblities for social and political change. Cox provides not a cynical portrait of sixties idealism, but a moving insight into an era when anything seemed possible.

Download or read book Food Co ops in America written by Anne Meis Knupfer and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-10 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, American shoppers have become more conscious of their food choices and have increasingly turned to CSAs, farmers' markets, organic foods in supermarkets, and to joining and forming new food co-ops. In fact, food co-ops have been a viable food source, as well as a means of collective and democratic ownership, for nearly 180 years. In Food Co-ops in America, Anne Meis Knupfer examines the economic and democratic ideals of food cooperatives. She shows readers what the histories of food co-ops can tell us about our rights as consumers, how we can practice democracy and community, and how we might do business differently. In the first history of food co-ops in the United States, Knupfer draws on newsletters, correspondence, newspaper coverage, and board meeting minutes, as well as visits to food co-ops around the country, where she listened to managers, board members, workers, and members. What possibilities for change-be they economic, political, environmental or social-might food co-ops offer to their members, communities, and the globalized world? Food co-ops have long advocated for consumer legislation, accurate product labeling, and environmental protection. Food co-ops have many constituents-members, workers, board members, local and even global producers-making the process of collective decision-making complex and often difficult. Even so, food co-ops offer us a viable alternative to corporate capitalism. In recent years, committed co-ops have expanded their social vision to improve access to healthy food for all by helping to establish food co-ops in poorer communities.

Book Food Co ops

Download or read book Food Co ops written by William C. Ronco and published by Beacon Press (MA). This book was released on 1974 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: A food co-op is a group of individuals and families which purchases food in bulk from a wholesaler, avoiding middle-man markup, and distributes to its members. The food co-op is an economical, political and qualitative alternative to food supermarket shopping. It is a response to inflationary prices. The food co-op popularity implies participants' needs for autonomy and more control over the forces that shape their lives. History of food co-ops from initial organizational meetings in Concord, Massachusetts to comparisons of 1930's and 1970's co-ops is presented. Chapters describe potential food savings and time commitments involved; organizational possibilities, growth and change over time; space, bookkeeping, financing and organizational needs; wholesale buying techniques; political ramifications. Appendices list wholesalers, national co-ops and co-op newsletters.
