It doesn't help that since literally nobody except maybe the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia has actually tried a co-operative based economy, there's little incentive to study the matter and not really much data to work with.
The SFRY actually provides an interesting case study in "stuff we wanna avoid" if we go for the "socialist" option. It had perpetually high unemployment and debt, partially because it retained things like soft budget constraints despite transitioning to a market framework, and oftentimes maintained state control of firms in actuality by enforcing party control over the election of managers. Then, Tito died, and the economy immediately began to suffer from the sudden divergences in policy made by most of the republics, and then when the government went for austerity to try and rectify the debt problem, the economy just crashed and burned, before privatization and the Yugoslav wars obliterated the remains.
