Diskussion mit Tim Jackson Tim Jackson; Gerhard Schick; Barbara Unmüßig; Lili Fuhr; Thomas Fatheuer Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung The podcast exposes the concept and principles of co-operatives and the three main types of co-operatives: the consumer, credit and farmers buying and selling co-operatives. Furthermore, the history of the co-operative movement is presented. The authors draw the line from co-operatives to "degrowth" by arguing that these organisations discourage profit maximisation due to their ownership structure, their social purpose and their primacy of people over capital. The value of the members' co-operative share does not increase with the growth of a co-operative and it can not be used for speculation. Finally, the authors give examples for current co-operatives which empower (local) communities fostering social justice and environmentalism. 2016 Level: leicht Co-operatives Ann-Christin Abbenhaus; Nadia Johanisova; Ruben Suriñach Padilla; Philippa Parry Degrowth Audiobook 'Impressive... provides a very good compendium of what are usually classified as "heterodox" development economics... an excellent volume.'
