Dylematy spółdzielczej formy gospodarowania w polskim rolnictwie i na obszarach wiejskich w świetle potrzeb i możliwości jej rozwoju
(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2015) Czternasty, Waldemar
The cooperative sector in Poland is currently undergoing advancing marginalisation, resulting in recurring identity, efficiency and environmental crises. The author claims that from the macroeconomic point of view as well as from the point of view of advantages to agricultural holdings and local communities, is will be absolutely necessary to develop a form of group management focused on the economic and social aspect of the agricultural sector and rural areas. This development must be correlated with an ‘update’ of certain principles and values of the cooperative movement, which arise from the needs of a devel-oped market economy. The idea of cooperative property, the necessary changes in the con-cept of cooperative membership, and implementation of a system of better access to equity require particular attention. Cooperatives will have to adopt a more business approach when operating in a market economy to become more competitive and efficient. This change will determine the economic and social function of cooperatives and is in line with the interest of its members.
