Face aux dérives des coopératives agricoles
Des alternatives existent et se développent sous forme de société #cooperatives ( #Scop / #Scic ) afin de revenir à une #agriculture :
- d’entraide
- de partage
- de solidarité
- de mutualisation du foncier
Et bien sûr, pour une agriculture durable.

Mujeres, cooperativas y colectivas solidarias. Una mirada feminista - Dra. Josefina Cendejas Guízar
"Si las reformas legislativas y las políticas no se hacen con una perspectiva de género, tampoco abonarán al avance de la igualdad sustantiva"
This is interesting. Data co-ops as an alternative to the big tech centralised data economy.

When I lived in #milwaukee, I shopped at my neighborhood grocery #cooperative. I even served on the board for three years.
I just got an email letting me know the co-op is shutting down or restructuring.

Ara que sou molts els que tornau de vacances, pensau en quants dels euros que heu gastat aniran a parar a les butxaques d'unes poques persones.
És un bon moment per reflexionar què passaria si hotels, restaurants, mitjans de transport, etc. estiguessin en mans de cooperatives.

Three multi-stakeholder home care #cooperatives talk about how they provide top quality care while keeping prices as low as possible and wages as high as possible.
#ukpol #housing Sod the #royalfamily Punitive sanctions on all landlords holding back all empty homes. I don't give a stuff whether that's #localgovernment, #housingassociations or #venturecapitalists. The only thing that works are small local #housing #cooperatives. That's both my experience and an opinion.

The Royal Family have at least 8 empty homes - they could all be used to house asylum seekers! 
"The recent book by Marcelo Vieta, Workers’ Self-Management in Argentina: Contesting Neo-liberalism by Occupying Companies, Creating Cooperatives, and Recuperating Autogestion (Haymarket Books, Chicago, 2020), provides a wealth of information and analysis on the emergence of worker-run production cooperatives in Argentina’s crisis-ridden industries. It highlights workers’ prominent role in occupying and self-managing factories that were either shut down or on the brink of closure following the economic crisis of the 1990s. The book also offers fascinating examples of how these worker-managed units were established. Argentina’s labour movement provides valuable lessons for understanding the complexities of workers’ self-management.
To better understand the economic and political conditions that led to these labour movements, it is crucial to briefly consider the historical context of labour organization in Argentina, as discussed in the book and other related sources, particularly its relationship with the state and capitalists. A special focus will be placed on ‘Peronism,’ which significantly shaped labour politics. After that, we will explore some key aspects of the book and conclude with reflections on the concept of workers’ control and its (in-)conceivability under capitalism."

Today in Labor History August 17, 1861: Edward Józef Abramowski, Polish philosopher, psychologist, and libertarian socialist was born. Considered the founder of the Polish co-operative movement, Abramowski also served as chair of Experimental Psychology, at the University of Warsaw, a position he occupied from 1915 until his death in 1918. He participated in the Paris gathering of Polish socialists, in 1892, where the Polish Socialist Party was founded. In his most well-known work, “Socialism & State,” he called himself a "state-rejecting socialist." However, toward the end of his life, he leaned more toward anarcho-syndicalism.
