Beschreibung
The book offers a description, documentation and analysis of
a four-years, interdisciplinary degree course in
co-operative economics at the University of Marburg (1994 to
2002) for students from Africa, Asia, Latin America and
Central and Eastern Europe. In 20 interviews with graduates
from different study cycles success criteria of this unique
experiment in the field of higher education were identified.
After their studies, most graduates returned to their
countries of origin. Their careers show that this model of
training co-operative promoters was successful.
Hans-H. Münkner is Professor emeritus of law
and theory of co-operation and was Managing Director of the
Institute for Co-operation in Developing Countries at the
University of Marburg, Germany, from 1992 to 2000.
