  • Assessing Mondragon: Stability & Managed Change in the Face Of
    THE WILLIAM DAVIDSON INSTITUTE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN Assessing Mondragon: Stability & Managed Change in the Face of Globalization By: Saioa Arando, Fred Freundlich, Monica Gago, Derek C. Jones and Takao Kato William Davidson Institute Working Paper Number 100 3 November 2010 Assessing Mondragon: Stability and Managed Change in the Face of Globalization Saioa Arando, Fred Freundlich, Monica Gago, Derek C. Jones and Takao Kato November, 2010 Abstract By drawing on new interview evidence gathered during several field trips and new financial and economic data from both external and internal sources, we document and assess the changing economic importance and performance of the Mondragon group of cooperatives as well as the two largest sectors within the group. Compared to conventional firms in the Basque Country and Spain, and producer co-ops (PCs) and employee owned firms elsewhere, in general we find evidence of growing group importance and strong performance and a similarly strong record for the industrial and retail divisions. These stylized facts do not support hypotheses concerning PCs such as predictions that PCs will restrict employment and become progressively comparatively undercapitalized. In accounting for this record, we highlight key and, at times, not uncontroversial institutional developments in the group during the last 20 years or so that indicate the existence of a continuing capacity for institutional adaptation in Mondragon-- an ongoing ability to innovate and make institutional adjustments to deal with emerging challenges. In addition, we provide more detailed information than before on some key distinguishing institutional mechanisms of the Mondragon group, including the extent of worker-member transfers during economic crises, the patterns of profit pooling and the type and volume of training.

  • Chapter 7 Perceptions Towards Multilingual Practices in Teacher Education
    Nagore Ipiña and Begoña Pedrosa Chapter 7 Perceptions towards Multilingual Practices in Teacher Education Abstract: Higher Education (HE) in Europe has been attributed an important role in fostering multilingualism and therefore, universities in Europe have developed policies (Extra & Yagmur, 2012; Fortanet-Gómez, 2013; Pavón, Lancaster & Bretones, 2019) and reflected on practices that could promote multilingualism in the last few years� In that line, approaches such as CLIL or EMI have also become common practices in some contexts� However, most of the experiences carried out in HE have proved not to be sufficient (Fortanet-Gómez, 2013) to reach the aims and thus, further research is needed (Dafouz & Smit, 2014)� Focusing on Teacher Education, the intent of this chapter is to examine critically the practices carried out in Teacher Education at the Faculty of Humanities and Education of Mondragon University� The study was carried out by means of focus groups with student teachers and semi-structured interviews with teacher educator to analyse the existing perceptions towards multilingual practices at the Faculty of Humanities and Education from an ecological perspective (van Lier, 1998, 2004)� Results show that the practices conducted are perceived as meaningful by the participants as a way to foster multilingualism� Moreover, results of this study call for a new step towards Pluriliteracies Teacher for Learning Approach to develop a more holistic and ecological perspective� However, conducting similar research studies in other contexts

  • Case Study 6: Mondragon International Clusters
    Mondragon Multi-localisation Strategy: Innovating a Human Centred Globalisation 383 CASE STUDY 6: MONDRAGON INTERNATIONAL CLUSTERS Introduction The Mondragon co-operatives history is that of a group based on geographically proximity of the co-operatives themselves, and on inter-cooperation among them. Mondragon and the Deba Valley; while compared to Emilia Romana (Becattini, 1990), it has been identified as an Industrial District. The diversity of sectors, markets and technologies among Mondragon co-operatives can be attributed to the strategies followed by Grupo Caja Laboral back in the 1970s and 80s. In 1991 the Mondragon Group’s industrial divisions were re-structured according to sectors, in order to enhance the possibilities thereof. The Mondragon Group’s new structure, organised around economic sectors, was coherent with the clustering strategy implemented in the Basque Country and based on the recommendations made by Professor Michael Porter from Harvard University. Today the Mondragon industrial co-operatives are not only divided into 12 industrial divisions (see Figure 3.9), but are also active members of the regional industrial clusters, such as ACICAE (automotive) or GAIA (telecommunication). It can be said that both strategies have been of great success. The having of a global dimension is a requirement for most of the Mondragon co- operatives. Increasingly they are opening production plants abroad in countries and regions that have a similar series of challenges and opportunities1. As a result nearly all the Mondragon projects abroad are dealing with virtually the same series of problems: 1 For further detail see chapter 5 Jose Mari Luzarraga PhD Mondragon University - 2008 Mondragon Multi-localisation Strategy: Innovating a Human Centred Globalisation 384 branding and acquiring a new local customer base, lobbying local governments, workforce training, workforce turnover and employee loyalty, certification of suppliers and quality control, logistics management, and issues of isolation, dissatisfaction and motivation of expatriate employees.

Evaluating Workplace Democracy in Mondragon Anders Christiansen Department of Political Science Honor’s Thesis University of Vermont May 2014 Committee Members: Jan Feldman, Ph.D. Cornell University Shirley Gedeon, Ph.D. University of Massachusetts Amherst Peter Von Doepp, Ph.D. University of Florida Abstract Following the global financial crisis in 2008, the Mondragon Cooperative Corporation was used as an example of an alternative to capitalist development. At the same time, much of the recent literature on Mondragon has questioned whether Mondragon’s democracy has degenerated, without drawing definitive conclusions. I review how democracy has been defined in the past and conclude that while Mondragon’s conception of democracy is applicable in small homogenous cooperatives, it needs to be reformulated in order to apply to large, diverse groups. In its current state, Mondragon cannot be considered a democracy.

  • Legal Education Through Minority Languages Chapter Six
    PART II LEGAL EDUCATION THROUGH MINORITY LANGUAGES CHAPTER SIX BASQUE-MEDIUM LEGAL EDUCATION IN THE BASQUE COUNTRY Xabier Arzoz A. Introduction In an area of 20,742 km2 and with a population of approximately three million, the Basque-speaking territories of Spain and France possess a high density of law schools. Legal education is off ered in the Basque- speaking territories through the medium of three languages: Spanish, French and Basque. However, most of the law schools follow single- medium education. French is the medium of instruction at the multi- disciplinary Faculty of Bayonne (France) which teaches law and forms part of the Université de Pau et des Pays de l’Adour, and Spanish is the medium of instruction at the law schools of the two Universities of Navarre (the Public University of Navarre and the private, Opus Dei- owned University of Navarre) and at the Spanish Distance Univer- sity (UNED), which has premises in Portugalete and Bergara. Legal education is only bilingual (Spanish-Basque) at the law schools of the public University of the Basque Country and of the private, Jesuit- owned University of Deusto. Th ere is a third private University, Mondragon University, that is highly committed to Basque-medium education but it does not include a law school. It is not casual that both the University of the Basque Country and the University of Deusto have the only bilingual law schools. Th ey are located in the Basque autonomous community, which, on the one hand, with 2.1 million inhabitants, is the most populated Basque terri- tory and, on the other hand, constitutes a region (or ‘autonomous community’ in the terms of Spanish constitutional law) that has used the devolution of power from 1978 onwards to advance the legal status and the social use of the Basque language.
