Abstract

Objective: The aim of the article was to examine the relationship between membership in a cultural group and predispositions to create economies based on a cooperative model of operation on the example of leading cooperative economies in the world in 2014.
Materials and methods: The research has been conducted using literature dealing with the problem of multiculturalism and the report Measuring the Size and Scope of the Cooperative Economy published in 2014 by Dave Grace and Associates for the United Nations. At the time of writing the article, it was the latest coherent report containing empirical data on the shares of cooperative sectors in particular countries and regions of the world.
Results and conclusions: Linear cultures, despite having a lower intensity of cooperative features than reactive and multi-active cultures, are more willing to build economies based on a cooperative model of operation. These results were obtained based on trends among the most "cooperative" economies in the world, a control sample and regional trends.
