Cooperation vs. Authoritarianism in Spain

Season 3 Episode 308 | 26m 46s

What lessons can Spain give us about the value of cooperation in an authoritarian time? A vicious civil war followed by decades of rule by the dictator Francisco Franco led the country to respond to its authoritarian challenges by encouraging various cooperative efforts. Host Laura Flanders travels to Spain to report on the growth of cooperative models and speak with citizens involved with them.
