Michael Cook has helped inform many educators and researchers, including myself, by introducing concepts from the organizational economics literature and applying them to the cooperative business model. The discussion on demutualization and reasons cooperatives might fail can be found in his paper entitled “The Future of U.S. Agricultural Cooperatives: A Neo-Institutional Approach,” American Journal of Agricultural Economics 77,5(1995):1153–1159.
