Chapter 7 in New perspectives in the co-production of public policies, public services and common goods, 2022, vol. 3, pp 143-163 from CIRIEC - Université de Liège

Abstract: The role played by public and social economy organisations/enterprises in the coproduction of public goods and commons has increased, especially at the local level. This phenomenon is observed between various actors, not only officially registered social enterprises in Slovakia, but also organisations of various legal forms who by their activities fulfil the criteria of social enterprise definition. To map various organisations that participate in co-production and bring social innovations at the local level is the focus of this chapter. The chapter aims to contribute to the existing literature on social enterprises/social economy organisations in one of the postcommunist countries (transforming the "socialist" social enterprise sector into social economy) and assessing the potential of social enterprises/social economy organisations in promoting innovations by partnerships (with the public sector, nongovernmental organisations, citizens) in the form of co-production.
