Chapter 8 in Entrepreneurial Economics, 2000, pp 157-171 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract As with profit orientated entrepreneurs, social entrepreneurs apply new perspectives and innovations and significantly change what things or services are produced, how they are produced and/or how their organizations operate. There have been many such social entrepreneurs and innovators down the ages. We start by looking at some examples of these before considering social entrepreneurship in business related organizations and civic entrepreneurship in government.
