Literary notes about cooperation (AI summary)
The term "cooperation" appears in literature with a wide range of meanings, from the concrete logistics of collaborative projects to broader, abstract ideals of social unity and shared responsibility. In technical and contemporary writings, it is sometimes used to denote organized teamwork in the advancement of complex projects, as illustrated by initiatives like COSINE [1]. In historical and memoir literature, cooperation often signifies the practical alliances necessary for military or political success, such as in coordinating troop movements or diplomatic efforts [2, 3]. Meanwhile, in philosophical and socio-political discourses, the word underscores the essential role of mutual support within communities and nations, reflecting on it as a vital element of ethical life and progressive society [4, 5, 6].
