内容説明

This is the first comparative worldwide look at how social enterprise is shaped by local conditions. Social enterprise, the use of market-based, civil society approaches to address social issues, has been a growing global phenomenon for over twenty years. Bringing together essays written by social enterprise researchers and practitioners from seven regions and countries, this volume examines, from a local perspective, the diverse ways that social enterprise has emerged in different areas around the world. Each chapter examines the conceptualization, history, legal and political frameworks, supporting institutions, and latest developments and challenges for social enterprise in a given region or country. In the final chapter, Kerlin presents a comparative analysis of the various models and contexts for social enterprise, showing that particular unique strengths in each environment lead to different enterprise initiative models in different areas.
