Managing the Democratization Process in Work Cooperatives

Recent public interest in employee-owned enterprises does not see them as exemplars of economic and industrial democracy, but more as a special type of partnership that can take over in the wake of the flight of capital. Their democratization is not encouraged, nor is the establishment of work cooperatives with articulated non-economic goals. A county-wide survey of work cooperatives in Lane county, Oregon, demonstrates some of the problems and some of the potentials in managing the democratization process. Their counterculture values tend to keep them in a precarious existence which agrees with the flndings of Joyce Rothschild-Whitt. In some, a learning process can be discovered, which hints at a development that portrays many of the features of the model suggested by Paul Bernstein.
