Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This chapter deals with consumer co-ops (co-operatives), while the preceding Chapter 20 deals with Worker Co-ops. Consumer and service co-ops basically differ from Producer/Worker co-ops by virtue of the economic relation their members have with the cooperative, as consumers versus producers or workers, and the related interests and benefits they promote. We review research on Consumer Co-op historical developments in Asia, Latin America, Europe, and North America. Other topics reviewed include activities of co-ops, origins, locations, getting involved, volunteering, sustainability, current challenges, internal organization, variations among co-ops, relations with other co-ops and national coordinating bodies, barriers to participation and effectiveness, and relations to public policy. The chapter provides definition of special terms, suggestions for usable knowledge, and ideas for future research.

Co-production as a social and governance innovation in public services

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The OECD considers co-production an important social innovation. This paper discusses alternative definitions of innovation, since traditional definitions, employed by economists for industry and manufacture, do not fit well with public service provision. It then presents some definitions of co-production, discusses the relationship between staff and their clients, and asks whether co-production is based on individual acts, collective action or both. It briefly discusses several factors that can contribute to making co-production more sustainable. This paper concludes that governments should develop more flexible, service specific and organization specific approaches for promoting co-production, rather than looking for simple “one size fits all” solutions to the challenges facing public service delivery in the 21st Century, particularly for enduring welfare services. Finally, it recommends more research to promote sustainable co-production.
