Community & Cooperative Living

Community and cooperative living books explore the practical art of building intentional communities and collaborative institutions informed by anthroposophical social principles. This collection of roughly 30 titles addresses governance, shared economics, and the inner work required to live and work together consciously.

Central to this section is the legacy of Karl Konig, who founded the Camphill movement in 1940, establishing communities where people with and without developmental disabilities live and work side by side. Bernard Lievegoed’s The Developing Organization has influenced cooperative governance models far beyond anthroposophical circles.

Community founders, cooperative members, and Waldorf school boards will find practical guidance here. Related titles appear in Social Renewal and Economics & Work.
