The Teachers Group
The teachers employed by the Tvind Schools in Denmark formed the Teacher Group in the early years. The Teachers Group or TG is not a legal body, but is way of sharing life and does not have legal personality. Most of the teachers in the Danish schools in the 1970'ties and in the early 1980'ties pooled their savings and invested these savings in acquisition of the school buildings via the Private Foundation Faelleseje, which became the owners of the buildings. The Teachers Group bases its principles along the lines of having a common economy, common time and common distribution (of what actual work position to take up).

—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
“A little group of willful men, representing no opinion but their own, have rendered the great government of the United States helpless and contemptible.”
