Synopsis

This book, a collaboration between Indian and Western researchers, is the first using a comparative framework to explain the striking regional differences in perfomance by cooperatives in rural India. Demonstrating how institutional performance can be evaluated in developing countries, this analysis points toward general principles of organizational effectiveness, revealing the potentials and limitations of cooperatives as instruments of rural development.
