The Search for Social Entrepreneurship

摘要

This book addresses a topic of irrefutable relevance that contains the work of researchers from a number of different disciplines. The phenomenon of entrepreneurship always comes under the spotlight in situations of economic crisis, but in terms of the area of social entrepreneurship, it should be capable of generating new initiatives with even greater intensity. We adhere to the thoughts of Guzman and Trujillo (2005) when they consider the 1980s as being the time when entrepreneurship began to acquire relevance for business schools. We can also identify the start of the twenty-first century as the moment when social entrepreneurship began to appear in a sizeable number of academic studies.
