what was the basic difference between thw cooperative advocated by robert owen and louis blanc
Answers
Vision of Robert Owen and Louis Blanc is related to coming of socialism to Europe. Both believed in the idea of cooperatives. But their way of working is very different from each other. Robert Owen was a leading English manufacturer. He built a cooperative community which was called as NEW HARMONY IN INDIANA (USA). He was spreading cooperative ideology on a wide scale only through individual initiative. But Louis Blanc's ideology was different. He wanted the government to these type of activities like to encourage cooperative and replace capitalist enterprises. He also wanted that these cooperatives were to be associations of people who produced goods together and divided the profits according to the work done by members.

Robert Owen wanted to form co-operatives himself with the support of the government. He planned a cooperative named as New Harmony. On the other hand, Louis Blanc wanted the government to form strong cooperatives which will replace the capitalist economies. He felt government should divide the profits according to work done by the members.
