Abstract

The preceding three chapters have reviewed the economic theory of the labour-managed firm. This theory is not an end in itself. It has been developed to further the understanding of how democratically-owned and -managed enterprises might be expected to behave. This chapter and the next turn to the actual experience of such organisations. As was mentioned in Chapter 2, the theory was originally developed with the evolving Yugoslav system of self-management in mind. Much of the material of Chapter 4 was also evolved to the same end. In view of this, because of its unique nature as the only wholly self-managed industrial system, and the peculiar historical and political position of that country, this chapter is given over wholly to a discussion of Yugoslavia. The following chapter examines groups of producers’ cooperatives in four western industriali3ed economies, and discusses the relationship between institutional characteristics and performance.
