Cooperatives and development questions

200 EGP

The book "Cooperatives and Development Questions" is based on a practical study of a number of cooperative ownership models in which the author, who is the founder of the National Initiative to Support Cooperatives in Egypt, contributed to establishing 12 companies owned by small farmers and producers and managed according to the cooperative model and in a democratic manner. Thus, the book is the intellectual expression of the cooperative ownership project as a model that the author proposes in the face of the private ownership pattern and the periodic crises it creates, and in the face of the results of capitalist economic globalization and its effects on the poorest local communities. The pursuit of development and justice is considered the main driver of the initiative to support cooperatives, which this book resulted from following up practically and theoretically. This justice constitutes one of the strong foundations that guarantee the development of effective demand as a driver for investment that leads to the employment of new workers who convert the largest part of their income into effective demand, which drives new investments in an endless cycle called the investment multiplier, which forms the core of any cycle of economic growth and prosperity and forms the strong basis for the continuity and sustainability of growth. In addition, justice in income distribution is a fundamental pillar of any social peace based on consent and not on oppression and tyranny.
