dc.description.abstractCo-operative development had been reestablished in newly independent African countries in Zimbabwe and Mozambique. The failure of many co-operatives especially the production co-operatives, has resulted in a decreasing interest. The less spectacular forms like rural service co-operatives or credit and savings co-operatives did not attract the same research initiatives and interests as producer co-operatives despite the fact that rural service co-operatives have played a considerable economic, social and political role in many African countries (Hedlund, 1988). Rural service co-operatives in South Africa have been initiated by the farmers and/or government. All too often they ended up, both cases alike, being run by the government. Direct state control is unlikey to facilitate a creative environment in the local community or in a local community institution.en_ZA
