    Book Review
    Economy of Communion: Case of Seong Sim Dang

    A story about Seong Sim Dang which is widely regarded by Korean people as one of the three best bakeries of the nation has been published as a book titled ‘Seong Sim Dang - the bakery we loved’. Renowned economist Luigino Bruni, Professor in Economics at Lofiano Sofia University in Italy praised the bakery by introducing it as the prime example of the Economy of Communion (EoC) and stated that “if there are 100 small and medium sized companies that are based on the management and philosophy of Seong Sim Dang, the entire structure of the Korean Economy can be shifted”.

    Seong Sim Dang is donating one third of breads they produce for poor people in the community and 15% profits of the bakery directly go to its employees. The management and operation of the factories and the bakeries are cooperatively managed by the owner and employees. Also, 40% of performance evaluation of employees are about ‘how they cherish their co-workers’.

    As part of the Focolare Movement, the notion of the Economy of Communion (EoC) was firstly founded by Chiara Lubich in 1991. EoC promotes a practice and an economic culture imprinted on communion, gratuity, reciprocity and proposes an alternative lifestyle to the dominant capitalist market system.

    EoC highlights importance of the culture of giving for the profits to those excluded and marginalised in society and suffer from hunger. It also values enterprise that are managed by in harmony of workers and the community.

    Seong Sim Dang does not simply donate the breads to poor and distribute their profits to employees as if sharing company stocks, but their philosophical values the communion between employees and community. Seong Sim Dang has been nominated as the No.1 local company that university graduates in the Daejeon area want to work for. As of 2016, the bakery hires more than 400 employees and annual profits are over 40 billion Korean Won (equivalent to 34 million USD).

    For further details for the bakery checked out the publisher’s website (available only in Korean).
