The vast majority of workers in the Western democracies lack even the most elementary voice in decisions that affect the business that employs them. PARTNERS IN ENTER'PRISE The Worker Ownership Phenomenon edited by Jack Quarter and George Melnyk The current interest in new fonns of ownership of the economy stems from a number of sources: from worker buyouts to prevent plant shut- downs to workers' demands for self-expression and democratic con- trol. The inability of established economic organizations to meet even traditional needs has led to the belief that worker ownership is "an idea whose time has come." This book is about a fonn of business - the worker co-operative - in which workers are owners. The essays provide a record of the worker co-operative movement both as it stands at present and historically from the first experiments in the 1860s.

  • Functional and Hydration Properties of Milk Protein Concentrate (MPC)
    Milk Science Vol. 64, No. 2 2015 Review Functional and hydration properties of milk protein concentrate (MPC) Shinya Ikeda (Department of Food Science, College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1605 Linden Drive, Madison, WI 53706, USA) Abstract Milk protein concentrates (MPCs) are dried milk protein powders manufactured by membrane ˆltration processes such as ultraˆltration and diaˆltration followed by spray-drying. Due to their excellent nutritional qualities and phys- icochemical functionalities, MPCs are becoming widely recognized for their potential applications in the formulation of a variety of food products including protein-fortiˆed nutritional bars and beverages, and dairy foods such as cheese, yogurt, and ice cream. This review describes functional and hydration properties of MPCs, focusing on its rennet gela- tion behavior, stabilization of oil-in-water emulsions, decreases in the solubility during storage, and potential approaches to remedy the reduced solubility. Similarities and diŠerences in functional properties between MPC and other dairy ingredients such as non fat dry milk (NFDM),skimmilkpowder(SMP), and caseinates are highlighted. The eŠect of temperature and moisture during storage on the development of insolubility of MPC and its implications on the molecular mechanism of the solubility loss are discussed. ultraˆltration of pasteurized skimmed milk6,7).
