teoria spółdzielczości

Teoria spółdzielczości (cooperative theory) explains how cooperative organizations operate based on shared principles like mutual assistance, democratic control, and equal rights among members. These organizations are owned and managed collectively by members who benefit from goods, services, or economic opportunities rather than profit-maximization. The theory emphasizes member participation, social responsibility, and equitable distribution of benefits, fostering community development and sustainability. It highlights the importance of cooperation over competition, promoting values of solidarity, trust, and democratic decision-making within the cooperative structure.
