Bag om The History Of The Rochdale Pioneers (1893)

The History Of The Rochdale Pioneers (1893) by George Jacob Holyoake is a comprehensive account of the Rochdale Society of Equitable Pioneers, a group of 28 weavers and other artisans who established the first successful cooperative store in Rochdale, England in 1844. Holyoake, a prominent social reformer and early advocate of cooperative societies, provides a detailed history of the Rochdale Pioneers, from their humble beginnings as a group of workers struggling to make ends meet, to their eventual success as a model of cooperative organization and management. The book explores the challenges and obstacles faced by the Pioneers, including opposition from local merchants and the legal system, and the innovative strategies they used to overcome these challenges and build a successful business. Holyoake also discusses the broader social and economic context in which the Rochdale Pioneers operated, including the impact of industrialization, urbanization, and the rise of capitalism on working-class communities. Overall, The History Of The Rochdale Pioneers is a fascinating and insightful account of a pioneering experiment in cooperative enterprise that continues to inspire and inform cooperative movements around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
