Book 2 of 5
New organizations, driven by an entrepreneurial spirit but focused on social aims, are emerging throughout Europe. This publication is based on the results of an extensive research project carried out over a four-year period, and develops a comparative European analysis within a multidisciplinary framework to explore social enterprises. The authors combine theory with a rigorous analysis of 160 social enterprises across 11 EU countries to provide the reader with in-depth understanding of these complex organizations.
Social Enterprise. At the crossroads of market, public policies and civil society is structured around a number of key themes (multiple goals and multiple stakeholders, multiple resources, trajectories of workers, public policies). Each theme is illustrated with short, country experiences that reflect the diversity of welfare models across Europe.
