The new cooperative centres were set up\u2014or attempts receiving assistance of the political opposition in Hungary have been made to set them up\u2014on a regional basis, especially in the Gemer and Novohrad regions, such as the Association of the Slovakian and Ruthenian Cooperatives (Szlovenszk\u00f3i \u00e9s Ruszinszk\u00f3i Sz\u00f6vetkezetek Sz\u00f6vets\u00e9ge), and the Provincial Credit Cooperative of Farmers (Gazd\u00e1k Orsz\u00e1gos Hitelsz\u00f6vetkezete). The most successful cooperative network of the Hungarians in Slovakia, the Hanza Goods Centre (Hanza Sz\u00f6vetkezeti \u00c1ruk\u00f6zpont) based in Galanta, was established in 1925. Its foundation can be regarded both as a lucky economic-commercial constellation, and, at the same time, as a compromise with the Central Cooperative, which had eventually been a functioning project until 1938.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This study explores the building of ethnic-based centres within the Czechoslovak cooperative system between the two world wars, with special regard to the Slovakian conditions.
