Pioneers of Co-operation

Description:
The Rochdale Pioneers could hardly have envisaged the scale of the venture they were starting, or dreamt that some 160 years later 800 million people across the globe would be members of co-operatives adhering to the ‘Rochdale Principles’. These contributions, by two of today’s leading academic thinkers on co operative issues, are part of our efforts to address the under-reporting of the Pioneers’ achievements, and to celebrate, 160 years on, the remarkable contribution of the Rochdale Pioneers.
