NPOV: "Social transformation in cooperatives" edit

Latest comment: 7 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

This whole section seems to be pushing a socialist/communist POV under the guise of "Social transformation". It starts strong with this this statement: "Most workers cooperatives have in their DNA the social transformation role." It even mentions Gramsci as if he was a household name the reader would recognize with the "Gramscian terms", and not some obscure communist of no relevance.

This section should either be deleted or at the very least heavily rewritten. Arcade222 (talk) 18:30, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
