Dash, Tapas R (ed.) Cooperatives in the Global Economy, Boulder, CO: Lexington Books, 2021; 308 pp.: ISBN: 1498555225, £85 (hb) One of the most unfortunate results of neoliberalism, capitalist culture and our global economy at large is the marginalization of alternative voices, spaces and socio-economic movements. Perhaps this is unfortunate given how much cooperatives have accomplished for so many over nearly two centuries, and for how promising they are for the 21st century - where even the United Nations declared 2012 the "International Year of Cooperatives", and popular Marxist economists like Richard Wolff define socialism in terms of worker cooperatives ([2]). While there is much debate, and many different discourses surrounding the nature and role of cooperatives/cooperative economics, anyone interested in establishing, nurturing and studying successful alternatives to contemporary global capitalism will appreciate this important and fascinating work.
