        The return of public ownership in the United States

        by Thomas M. Hanna

        Public ownership is more widespread and popular in the United States than is commonly understood. This book is the most comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the scope and scale of U.S. public ownership, debunking frequent misconceptions about the alleged inefficiency and underperformance of public ownership and arguing that it offers powerful, flexible solutions to current problems of inequality, instability, and unsustainability- explaining why after decades of privatization it is making a comeback, including in the agenda of Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party in Britain. Hanna offers a vision of deploying new forms of democratized public ownership broadly, across multiple sectors, as a key ingredient of any next system beyond corporate capitalism. This book is a valuable, extensively researched resource that sets out the past record and future possibilities of public ownership at a time when ever more people are searching for answers.

        Civilising rural Ireland

        The co-operative movement, development and the nation-state, 1889–1939

        by Patrick Doyle

        The introduction of co-operative societies into the Irish countryside during the late-nineteenth century transformed rural society and created an enduring economic legacy. Building the Rural Civilization challenges predominant narratives of Irish history that explain the emergence of the nation-state through the lens of political conflict and violence. Instead the book takes as its focus the numerous leaders, organisers, and members of the Irish co-operative movement. Together these people captured the spirit of change as they created a modern Ireland through their reorganisation of the countryside, the spread of new economic ideas, and the promotion of mutually-owned businesses.Besides giving a comprehensive account of the co-operative movement's introduction to Irish society the book offers an analysis of the importance of these radical economic ideas upon political Irish nationalism.

        How Blair killed the co-ops

        Reclaiming social enterprise from its neoliberal turn

        by Leslie Huckfield

        Social enterprise and third sector activity have expanded into a prolific area of academic research and discourses over the past twenty years, with many claiming their origins rooted in Blair, New Labour and Giddens' "Third Way". But many academic contributions lack the experience of policy implementation and do not access the wealth of grey, legacy and public policy literature from earlier periods that support different interpretations. Since most make few references to developments during the 1970s and 1980s, their narrow focus on New Labour from 1997 onwards not only neglects real antecedents, but miscasts the role of social enterprise. During a key political period from 1998 to 2002, Blair's New Labour Governments forced through a major conceptual shift for social enterprise, co-operative and third sector activity. Many structures, formed as community responses to massive deindustrialisation in the 1970s and 1980s, were repositioned to bid against the private sector to obtain contracts for delivery of low cost public services. Based on previously unseen archival materials and interviews with key players between 1998 and 2002, when major social enterprise and third sector policy changes occurred, Huckfield offers an alternative narrative of social enterprise in the UK, showing how local communities have been denied the restoration of local economic and social democracy.

        How to Transform Your Organization from the Inside Out

        by Sebastian Klein, Ben Hughes

        Going round in circles to get ahead … … may sound like a contradiction—but it isn’t! For years, managers and leaders have known that their organizational structures are not fit for the future. Along came the wave of “agile methods” promising rapid improvement. But the kind of thing that works in a brand-new startup is unlikely to be easily transferable to an established business. For all that you may apply individual tools, the rigid structures of large businesses can only be transformed by remaking their entire framework. This is where the Loop Approach comes in: with is repetition-based system, it will get even the slowest giant moving. The Loop Approach has brought to change to major corporations such as Audi, Deutsche Bahn, and Telekom. The book has been completely revised for this edition, and a new practice-oriented chapter makes it user-friendlier than ever.   • Almost 7.500 copies sold since first publication 2019 • Tried and creative framework for bringing agility to established businesses • Revised edition with new material on remote working • Creative and colorful layout to appeal to agile leaders, businesses, and start-ups • Features numerous case studies, checklists, and worksheets

        Making a Difference

        Setting up Sustainable, Community-Based Projects

        by Pamela Walker

        Making a Difference is a book which aims to help bring about positive change within communities in England and Wales. It  is distinctive in being a practical ‘How To’ guide rather than a ‘Why Should’ argument. It provides a practical step-by-step guide for anyone who wants to set up a project or introduce a service that would benefit a significant number of vulnerable or excluded people, at any age, within their local communities, and which is sustainable for a long period of time.  The author draws on many years of experience within the charity sector to guide the reader through the process, explaining each stage clearly and precisely. The reader will be able to identify and develop key information about their project – why it’s necessary, what it will involve and how to approach it, what challenges might be encountered and how to avoid and overcome them. An example of a project, which runs through the whole book, enables the reader to see how each stage might apply to a real-life scenario. Packed with reassurance and useful insights into the workings of the Third Sector, this is an indispensable guide to making the world a better place.
