The Case of the Missing Organizations: Co-operatives and the Textbooks.
Hill, Roderick
Journal of Economic Education, v31 n3 p281-95 Sum 2000
States that co-operative (co-op) economics organizations are ignored in economic introductory textbooks in North America and provides evidence for this assertion. Addresses how to deal with this form of economic organization. Argues that asking who makes the decisions in firms and why, using co-ops as an example, raises important questions. (CMK)
