Abstract:
The monograph examines the statement that the combination of innovation activity and corporate social responsibility should create a synergistic effect of sustainable development of the enterprise. It is shown that increasing loyalty on the part of a large number of stakeholder groups (especially employees, consumers, suppliers, etc.) and reducing the level of risk perception on the part of financial stakeholders, consumers, etc. through the emergence of a "halo" or "halo" of responsible business are extremely important for high-risk innovation activities, increase the effectiveness of project management. At the same time, a positive perception on the part of stakeholders should affect the competitiveness of the company as a whole and its economic efficiency. For students and teachers, as well as all those interested in the economy of enterprises.

Abstract:
This chapter explores how social enterprise law can shape social enterprise exits, whether by sale, dissolution, or bankruptcy. It explains that the threat of exit looms large over social enterprises, their founders, and their investors. It then draws on lessons from unlikely sources—venture capital, public company mergers and acquisitions, and small business finance—to design contract terms and corporate governance provisions that can prevent exit from threatening a venture’s social mission. The chapter argues that even in the context of exit by dissolution, contract, and governance can be deployed to preserve a firm’s chosen balance of finance and social mission. It cautions social entrepreneurs and investors, however, that the utility of these tools wanes if a venture becomes insolvent. Whether in a formal bankruptcy proceeding or a more informal dissolution, if assets are insufficient to meet a social enterprise’s financial obligations, creditors’ interests become paramount.

Abstract:
Social Enterprise Law presents a series of audacious legal technologies designed to unleash the potential of social enterprise. Until now, the law has been viewed as an obstacle to social entrepreneurship, too inflexible to embrace for-profit businesses with a social mission at their core. Legislators have poured resources into creating hybrid corporate forms such as the benefit corporation to eliminate barriers to the creation of social enterprises. That first generation of social enterprise law has not done enough. The authors provide a framework for future legislation to do what benefit corporations have not: create durable commitments by social entrepreneurs and investors to balance financial gains and social mission by putting a speed limit on profits. They show how sophisticated investors need not wait for the advent of these legislative changes, outlining a contingent convertible debt instrument that relies instead on financial engineering to build trust between those with capital and those ready to use it to nurture a double bottom line. To allow social enterprises to harness the vast power of the crowd, they develop a tax regime that would provide crowdfunding platforms the means to screen the commitment of for-profit startups. Armed with these tools of social enterprise law 2.0 and the burgeoning metrics of measuring public benefit, entrepreneurs and investors can navigate even the turbulent waters of exit without sacrificing mission, so that a sale need not mean selling out.

Abstract:
This book shows how social entrepreneurship and social enterprises can integrate social and economic development. These dual-mission ventures that strive to achieve both financial sustainability and social good are especially path-breaking approaches in reducing economic, education, health, technology, and other disparities among marginalized individuals, families, and communities. While this global movement varies in pace and scope, this work features snapshots from eight countries or regions. This volume focuses especially on emerging economies and those in transition, featuring African countries of Kenya and Tanzania, Albania, Argentina, Central Asian countries of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, Cuba, India, the Russian Federation, and Taiwan. We examine a variety of ventures and their social policy context as they attempt to meet human needs while simultaneously also attaining financial sustainability. We also suggest social policies that promote supports for social entrepreneurs since environmental, economic, and social sustainability are core goals. But we also raise cautions about fostering social enterprises as panaceas for addressing human needs when government investments are required in social welfare, social protections, and ecosystem supports. Contextual frames are provided that range from social enterprise business plans and measuring entrepreneurial orientation to avoiding displacement dynamics and pitfalls of non-market economies. These are consistent with the global agenda of building jobs from the ground up as articulated in the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Recommendations are derived from illustrative cases from the nations and regions featured for more strategic supports and investments in social entrepreneurs and social enterprises.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter explains why social enterprises have more difficulty gaining access to capital than conventional businesses do. It begins with the insight that law lends both for-profits and nonprofits the stability they need to raise capital; legal doctrine and enforcement mechanisms combine to reassure donors and investors that their contributions to standard businesses and charities will be well spent. Using the tools of game theory, the chapter then describes the more challenging assurance problem faced by social enterprise founders and investors. For either an entrepreneur or investor to commit capital to the venture, each must trust the other to remain faithful to both of its dual missions—and particularly to be willing to trade more social good for lower financial returns. The chapter concludes by describing why neither traditional for-profit and nonprofit law nor the first-generation of social enterprise law satisfactorily bridge this trust deficit.

Abstract:
This chapter considers social enterprise law’s reliance upon metrics: the tools for measuring the success of a venture’s social mission. It explains that measuring social return presents a far more daunting challenge than quantifying financial yield, and describes ongoing efforts to meet this challenge. In doing so, it focuses first on foundational metrics like IRIS, which creates a vocabulary for discussing impact, and then on evaluative metrics like B Lab’s B Impact Assessment, which uses this vocabulary to judge and compare a social enterprise’s success across industries and over time. The chapter then identifies how each of the earlier chapter’s proposed legal tools rely on metrics to function, and shows how they can be refined as the accuracy of metrics improves. It also shows how certification bodies and intermediaries like social stock exchanges likewise rely on metrics to power their complementary solutions to enhance social enterprises’ access to capital.

Abstract:
This chapter first outlines the legitimacy of measuring co-operative law by the internationally recognized co-operative principles, and the evolution of co-operative law across the globe over the past decades. Based thereupon it then suggests re-establishing the rationale for a co-operative law which distinguishes co-operatives from other types of enterprises, this rationale being the sustainable development enhancing diversity of enterprise types. The locus of competition/competitiveness is shifting from financial performance to the normative capacity of enterprises to contribute to sustainable development. Co-operatives have a competitive advantage in this respect. This chapter will therefore suggest how to translate this capacity into the legal structure of co-operatives. It does so against the background of the economic, political, sociological, and socio-psychological changes and challenges, of which globalization is both cause and effect, and which impact the co-operative values and the notion of (co-operative) law and of law-making.

The Oxford Handbook of Entrepreneurship aims to provide a comprehensive review of state-of-the-art research in entrepreneurship. The authors are all leading scholars in their field. Entrepreneurship has always been a key factor in economic growth, innovation, and the development of firms and businesses. More recently, new technologies, the waning of the old economy, globalization, changing cultures and popular attitudes, and new policy stances have further highlighted the importance of entrepreneurship and enterprise. Entrepreneurship is now a dynamic and expanding area of research, teaching, and debate. All the major aspects of entrepreneurship are covered in this book: the start-up and growth of firms; financing and venture capital; innovation, technology, and marketing; women entrepreneurs; ethnic entrepreneurs; migration; small firm policy; the economic and social history of entrepreneurship.

Abstract:
This chapter analyses the evolution of US stock markets in terms of five functions: ‘control’, ‘cash’, ‘creation’, ‘combination’, and ‘compensation’. I argue for the centrality of the control function in supporting innovative enterprise in the rise of US managerial capitalism. I then consider how each of the five functions can encourage value creation or, alternatively, empower value extraction, and trace the evolving roles of the five functions of the stock market in major US business corporations over the past century. Drawing upon this history, I conclude by critiquing the dominant ideology that, for the sake of superior economic performance, a company should be run to ‘maximize shareholder value’ (MSV). I indicate how MSV undermines the social conditions of innovative enterprise: strategic control, organizational integration, and financial commitment.

Abstract:
This chapter describes how social enterprise founders and investors can use financial instruments to credibly signal their double-bottom-line commitments to each other. Its main example is a contingent convertible debt instrument that would constrain both investors and entrepreneurs from unilaterally abandoning social mission in favor of profit. The instrument’s low yield and long term would reassure entrepreneurs by screening in only investors willing to sacrifice profit for social mission for a considerable period. Conversion rights triggered on the sale of founders’ equity would allow investors to trust founders not to sell out. In an IPO or sale before the instrument’s maturity, founders would lose a significant share of any profit to debtholders unless these lenders agreed to its terms. Through this example and others, the chapter shows how social entrepreneurs and impact investors can craft sophisticated financial instruments to overcome the trust deficit that would otherwise keep them apart.

Abstract:
The financial inclusion effort achieved positive results, with the number of Mozambicans having access to banking services increasing considerably, particularly after 2011–12. However, the economic and social impact was limited, considering that farm productivity has remained low and poverty levels are still high. The neoliberal doctrine in the economic sphere, its expression in the restrictive monetary policies, and the weakness of the multi-party democracy system have been institutional factors restricting economic and social development. Consequently, this study proposes some institutional reform measures to expand credit to family subsistence farmers, small and medium-sized enterprises, the population in general, and low-income families in particular. Young people could benefit from more accessible housing loans. Rural family farmers also need systemic, public support.

Abstract:
This book is an in-depth case study of the Furness Withy and Co Shipping Group, which operated both tramp and liner services and was one of the five major British shipping groups of the early twentieth century. It demonstrates how British shipowners of this period generated success by exploring Christopher Furness’ career in relation to the social, political, and cultural currents during a time of tremendous shipping growth in Britain and the establishment of some of the largest shipping firms in the world. It approaches the study from three angles. The first analyses how the Furness Group expanded its shipping activities and became involved with the industrial sector. The second illustrates the organisational and financial structure of the enterprise. Finally, the Group’s leadership and entrepreneurship is scrutinised and placed within the wider context of twentieth century British business. The case study begins in 1870, with an introduction explaining how Christopher Furness came to join the family company, Thomas Furness and Co. in order develop services, expand, and instigate the changes and mergers that brought the Furness Group into existence. There are thirteen chronologically presented chapters, a bibliography, and seven appendices of data including an ownership timeline, tonnage statistics, acquisitions, a list of maritime associates, and a timeline of Christopher Furness’ life. The book concludes in 1919 with the de-merging of the Furness Group’s shipping and industrial holdings, the resignation of the Furness family from the company’s board, the sale of their shares, and the move into managing the firm’s industrial interests.

This conclusion summarizes the major contributions of the work as a whole. Having identified a trust deficit as the primary obstacle to capitalizing social enterprises, this conclusion reminds the reader of the many ways the law can be an ally in overcoming it. It notes the potential of innovations as diverse as new organizational forms, hybrid financial instruments, tax regimes, social performance metrics, and exit planning in building trust, and reminds the reader that the power of the law lies in transforming hopes and expectations into enforceable rights and obligations. The chapter emphasizes the link between the book’s innovative proposals and the broader insight that law can engender the trust required to access capital markets to generate public benefit.

Abstract:
This chapter narrows the contextual focus to concentrate on the role of dramatic authorship within the broader cultural field. First, it examines how authors traditionally shaped their careers in Parisian theatre, and outlines the different types of financial and symbolic reward that were offered by the Comédie-Italienne and the Comédie-Française in the 1760s. Then, it reconstructs the career trajectories of some of Goldoni’s contemporaries, including Marmontel, Sedaine, and Riccoboni, examining how their involvement in theatrical and non-theatrical enterprises contributed to their social and financial position by earning them money and/or cultural capital in high or low circles. This analysis suggests that the Comédie-Italienne provided a more commercial alternative to its French counterpart, but also reveals the extent to which literary consecration of dramatic authors was enacted outside of the theatres altogether.
