Ristorante Cooperativo
The Ristorante Cooperativo, colloquially known as Coopi, is a restaurant in Zürich, Switzerland, known for its association with 20th-century left-wing political figures as well as the anti-fascist, trade union and Italian immigrant movements in Switzerland. The restaurant's roots are in the ''Società Cooperativa Italiana Zurigo'', founded by Italian immigrants in 1905 for "furthering Socialist cooperation". Apart from a library, the society also founded the ''Ristorante Cooperativo'' to allow immigrants to eat at affordable prices, and continues to operate it today. During World War II, the ''Cooperativo'' became a nexus of Socialist resistance against European Fascism, as many exiled Italian socialists fled to Switzerland. Among them was Filippo Turati, the founder of the Italian Socialist Party, whose bust still graces the restaurant. The ''Coopi'' was also where the ''Avanti!'' and '' L'Avvenire dei Lavoratori'' were being edited during the war years. These newspapers, the only ...
