ECONIS Select – The New Wave of Social Entrepreneurship

06/2009

In the aftermath of the collapse of the western financial system, many observers agree that neither unfettered financial markets nor invasive regulation are able to ensure that financial and business leaders will necessarily act in the public interest. While governments are pondering how to provide a legal and political framework that better aligns the needs of businesspeople and society at large, a new class of economic agents has emerged that aim to give explicit consideration to both social and economic gains. These agents are the social entrepreneurs.
