Author: Santos, Filipe M. INSEAD Area: Entrepreneurship and Family Enterprise Series: Working Paper ; 2009/23/EFE Publisher: Fontainebleau : INSEAD, 2009.Language: EnglishType of document: INSEAD Working PaperAbstract: I propose a theory aimed at advancing scholarly research in social entrepreneurship. By highlighting the key trade-off between value creation and value appropriation and explaining when situations of simultaneous market and government failure may arise, I suggest that social entrepreneurship is the pursuit of sustainable solutions to problems of neglected positive externalities. I further discuss when positive externalities are likely to be neglected and derive the central goal and logic of action of social entrepreneurship.| Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
