Co-operative banks have weathered the current financial crisis relatively well. In most countries, they did not need government support, their losses were comparatively small and they are seen as safe havens by clients and markets alike. This is not a new phenomenon, as earlier crises show similar patterns. These developments have resulted in renewed interest in co-operative banking. In this volume, the reader can find reflections on the co-operative business model and the governance structures of co-operative banks. It also contains a series of case studies of co-operative banks in times of crisis. As this book fills a gap in the academic literature, which has neglected co-operative business models for a long time, it is a necessary read for anyone who is interested in the functioning of banking systems.

Danny Dorling claims in this timely book that in rich countries inequality is now caused by unacknowledged beliefs which propagate it. Hard-hitting and uncompromising in its call to action, this is essential reading for everyone concerned with social justice.

Ondanks de dramatische verhalen over reddingsplannen voor de banken, faillissementen, groeiende werkloosheid en kapitalistische hebzucht bleven we geloven in optimistische modellen over marktwerking en rationeel economisch keuzegedrag. Maar wat als de markt faalt? In zijn scherpzinnige boek beschrijft John Cassidy de invloed van het utopisch denken in de economie - een denken dat blind is voor hoe mensen van vlees en bloed handelen, en dat de ogen sluit voor de rampzalige onbedoelde effecten die een ongereguleerde vrije markt kan hebben. Met de economische crisis als achtergrond laat Cassidy zien hoe irrationele gedragspatronen en motieven (zoals jaloezie, kopieergedrag, hebzucht en overmoed) leiden tot mondiale economische problemen - van piekende olieprijzen en een onbeheersbare huizenmarkt tot graaigedrag van ceo's.
