Description
After clarifying that he is "not opposed to capitalist firms but beyond them", Professor Zamagni explores the rationale for the existence of co-operatives, including supply and demand side explanations, and challenges the view that co-operatives represent a marginal form of economic organization. This Bologna Summer Program was presented in Vancouver, BC and is part of the Bologna Lecture series.Identifier (Other)
