| Abstract: | This study looks for a link btw. Catholicism and the propensity to cooperate (here as: prop-to-coop.) in the pre-1914 Irish dairy industry. Although the prop-to-coop. was higher in Denmark than in Ireland, and in Ulster than elsewhere in Ireland, Catholicism did not make cooperation more difficult in Ireland. Political conflict over land reforms and constitutional matters was to blame, not religion. Denmark's homogeneity, not its Protestantism, led to the success of cooperation there. |
