Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The increase in the poverty levels and the threat of hunger in South Africa is noticeable both nationally and internationally. Various strategies have been suggested in dealing with poverty. One of such poverty alleviation strategies is the use of development co-operatives in the fight against poverty and hunger. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between development co-operatives and poverty alleviation. The data used in this study was collected in the Alice District of the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa. Respondents consisted of people who are members of co-operatives in all sectors. The data was gathered using self-administered questionnaires. A survey was the best method to use, since the aim was to investigate the relationship between variables. The findings of this study indicated that co-operatives are not very effective in reducing poverty in the Alice District. The majority of these co-operatives have very low income returns. The findings also revealed that the failure of co-operatives can be attributed to lack of an institutional support framework amongst other factors.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 148 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In celebration of cooperatives' contributions to community development processes and outcomes worldwide, the United Nations designated 2012 as the Year of the Cooperative. Today, as in the past, cooperatives have proved effective in bringing people and organizations together to accomplish a broad array of goals related to fostering social and economic innovation, protecting communities against poor living and working conditions, and promoting a better quality of life. Analytically, as both a movement and as a business model, cooperatives hold much potential for generating the types of synergies, collaboration, and productive and social processes that enable community development to thrive in a variety of local, regional and global contexts. This collection of articles chronicles new developments in the ways in which cooperatives are used in a diverse array of community contexts. They offer insight as to what these changes mean, both empirically and theoretically, for community development in the decades to come.
