In 1844 the Rochadale Pioneers established the principles of the cooperative movement. This was the spark that created the development and growth of the cooperative movement. Coops can be found in all parts of the world today, from business to housing, from education to transport, from credit unions to workers cooperatives. Dr Cilla Ross is Vice-Principal of the Manchester Co-operative College, we spoke about her background, the relevance of the co-operative movement, the meaning of social justice, the different projects she works on, technology in education, equality, what solidarity means, and how to make things better through cooperation. You can find out more about Cilla and the work she does at the college here.
The name of the book which escaped me during our conversation was Strangers in Their Own Land by Arlie Russell Hochschild.
