Joan Tutau i Vergés
Joan Tutau i Vergés (Figueres 1829–1893), impulsor del cooperativisme, va viure intensament la política, l'economia i el civisme en una vida professionalment plena. El 1863, va introduir el moviment cooperatiu, i fou el primer difusor de les cooperatives de consum, que sempre recomanà a la classe obrera. Fou precursor dels sindicats agrícoles i capdavanter, amb Abdó Terrades, Martí Carlès, Narcís Monturiol i Pere Caimó, dels republicans federals. Escrigué a Almanaque democrático i El Ampurdanés. El 1854 sortí elegit segon alcalde de Figueres. El 1862 viatjà a Rochdale amb F. Garrido. El 1869 guanyà les eleccions a les Corts Constituents, on es declarà lliurecanvista, i el 1870 votà contra la monarquia i a favor de la República Federal. El 24 de febrer del 1873 va ser nomenat ministre d'Hisenda. Formà part de l'Ateneu Lliure de Catalunya, de la Junta Revolucionària de Barcelona, de la Societat Catalana General de Crèdit i de l'Ateneu Barcelonès.
Social Alternatives in Southern Europe and Latin America
This book deals with the evolution of initiatives connected to the social and solidarity economy and their political cultures and educational implications in the south of Europe and in Latin America. Employing a comparative perspective, the contributors present 11 studies of these trajectories in Argentina, Chile, Portugal, France, Italy, Spain, and Catalonia in order to engender familiarity with social tributary practices and projects in the Latin world. As the cyclical crises of capitalism and their resulting inequalities have created proposals of reform and brought them into action, certain shared ideological influences and policies have emerged across these societies. Faced with the interpretative schemes used for the Anglo-Saxon sphere, which have been the usual reference in international research, this volume’s geographical and cultural matrix of analysis helps fill a longstanding gap in this field. The book will be of interest to scholars, educators, and students specialising in the history and political science of the social and solidarity economy sectors, as well as professionals involved in cooperatives, mutual aid societies, and associations.
