An alternative approach to the study of co-operatives is offered in this volume. The author presents a new theoretical framework to understand the performance and limitations of a village co-operative based on a review of 50 case studies. This model has advantages over existing approaches: because of its emphasis on central tendencies rather than on extremes; for its explanation of both successes and failures; and for bringing the members of co-operatives to the centre of enquiry thus offering them a guide for positive action.
