The International Handbook of Social Enterprise Law

Pages : 949
Book Description
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 significant shift of how business activities are conducted, mainly 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 considering, among others, ethical, social, and environmental factors. A variety of social enterprise 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 expert researchers and practitioners in this field. The first part provides an overview of the social enterprise movement, its evolution, and the different forms 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 adaptation to their regulatory environment. In turn, the last part presents the status quo of purpose-driven companies in 36 developed and emerging economies worldwide. This handbook offers food for thought and guidance for everyone interested in this field. It will benefit practitioners and decision-makers involved in social and community organizations, as well as in international development and, more generally speaking, social sciences and economics.

La sociedad que no amaba a las mujeres
Author: Javier Fenández AguadoPublisher: Editorial Almuzara
ISBN: 8483566699
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
¿Qué tienen en común Isabel la Católica, Teresa de Jesús, Clara Campoamor, Frida Khalo y Coco Chanel? Todas fueron mujeres excepcionales y vencieron las trabas de una sociedad que no favorecía el desarrollo de su talento por el mero hecho de ser mujer. Esta obra recoge los perfiles de 60 mujeres que vivieron entre el siglo XIV a. C: y 1978, muchas de ellas grandes desconocidas para el gran público. Todas ellas tenían condición de líderes, pero ejercieron ese liderazgo de manera muy diferente y no siempre de forma positiva. De cada una de ellas se extraen numerosas enseñanzas de completa actualidad para los profesionales de hoy, al margen de su sexo.
