The progressive promise of agricultural cooperatives has two fundamental aspects; they lead to the expansion of the productive forces and to the democratization of the social relations of production. Critiques of cooperatives have most often focused on their failure to increase production or on the monopolization of services and benefits by a small proportion of wealthier farmers. This essay will examine an often overlooked facet in the assessment of cooperative development, focusing on its impact on wage workers and on the labor movement in the case of the sugar industry in Maharashtra, India
