Anotace knihy

This open access book brings together international experts, who shed new light on the status of social enterprises, benefit corporations and other purpose-driven companies. The respective chapters take a multidisciplinary approach (combining law, philosophy, history, sociology and economics) and provide valuable insights on fostering social entrepreneurship and advancing the common good.In recent years, we have witnessed a major shift in the way business activities are conducted, particularly through the rise of social enterprises. In an effort to target social problems at their roots, social entrepreneurs create organizations that bring transformative social changes by taking into consideration, among others, ethical, social, and environmental factors. A variety of social enterprises models are emerging internationally and are proving their vitality and importance.But what does the term "social enterprise" mean? What are its roots? And how does it work in practice within the legal framework of any country? This handbook attempts to answer these questions from a theoretical, historical, and comparative perspective, bringing together 44 contributions written by 71 respected researchers and practitioners in this field. The first part provides an overview of the social enterprise movement, its evolution, and the different forms that these entities can take to meet global challenges, overcoming the limits of what governments and states can do. The second part focuses on the emergence of benefit corporations and the growing importance of sustainability and societal values, while also analyzing their different legal forms and their adaptation to their regulatory environment. In turn, the last part presents the status quo of purpose-driven companies in 36 developed and emerging economies around the world.This handbook offers food for thought and guidance for everyone interested in this field. It will benefit practitioners and decision-makers involved in social organizations, international development, community organization and, more generally, the social sciences and economics.
