The Cooperative Man, translator’s introduction

I’ve decided to start publishing The Cooperative Man: Arizmendiarrieta’s Thought, by Joxe Azurmendi. There’s been enough encouragement to keep me working on it, but little hope of publishing it through conventional channels, so I’ll be doing it myself. In practice, that will take the form of putting out 10,000 words a month, give or take a few words. On letter-sized paper, that’s 20+ pages. That length of text does not lend itself to an email or even a webpage, so I will use PDF, plus ODT, .epub, and the original markdown.

The translation will be licensed as CC-BY-SA (Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike). That means readers may modify and re-release it as they wish, provided they attribute the original text to Joxe Azurmendi and the translation to In Situ.

The schedule will be a new section of text the first Monday of each month, or the second Monday if the first is a holiday.

With all that taken care of, here’s an introduction to the book itself.
