Description du livre
To mark the 2025 International Year of Cooperatives, Volume Two of Humanity@Work&Life will be “Mondragon in the World”-centric.
Mondragon has earned the performance right both in this century and the previous one to be considered as the world’s premier, solidarity values-driven, regenerative, ‘living laboratory’ model and prototyping socioeconomic platform rebuilding from wartime rubble to shared prosperity. There is no other industrial cooperative and social economy ecosystem on Planet Earth to match Mondragon’s effective 70-year track record. This model is eclectically and globally exportable as shown in “Humanity@Work&Life” (Oak Tree Press, 2023). Mondragon values leading to mutualist-driven successes prove there is an operational imperative to sustain healing development and inclusive progress in the face of surging global polycrisis chaos. The dire global need for regional and municipal reconstruction blueprints that include Mondragon-inspired ecosystem best practices is greater than ever.
