Allemaal Sociaal 3.0
In 'Allemaal sociaal 3.0' gaan de auteurs op zoek naar nieuwe recepten en duurzame oplossingen voor een maatschappij 3.0. Hoe herdefiniëren we economische waarde op lange termijn? Hoe en waar vinden social entrepreneurs en commerciële bedrijven elkaar? Hoe krijgt de ondernemende burger echt impact? En waarom moet de overheid zichzelf opnieuw uitvinden om zo mee de krijtlijnen te trekken voor een andere samenleving, waarin innovatieve samenwerkingsverbanden tot nieuwe inzichten leiden? Journalist Filip Michiels voerde voor dit boek urenlange gesprekken met Steven Serneels, Piet Colruyt, Marieke Huysentruyt en Johan Moyersoen, die de voorbije jaren bedrijven én overheden wereldwijd adviseerden in hun zoektocht naar een andere, duurzamere toekomst. Michiels ging zelf ook op zoek naar visionaire bedrijven, inspirerende social entrepreneurs en vernieuwende bestuursmodellen in binnen- en buitenland.
Social Economy Science
This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is free to read at Oxford Academic and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. Lack of progress in the area of global sustainable development and difficulties in crisis management highlight the need to transform the economy and find new ways of making society more resilient. The social economy is increasingly recognized as a driver of such transformations; it comprises traditional forms of cooperative or solidarity-based organizations alongside new phenomena such as impact investing or social tech ventures that aim to contribute to the public good. Social Economy Science provides the first comprehensive analysis of why and how social economy organizations create superior value for society. The book draws on organizational theory and transition studies to provide a systematic perspective on complex multi-stakeholder forms of action. It discusses the social economy's role in promoting innovation for impact, as well as its role as an agent of societal change and as a partner to businesses, governments, and citizens.
The Nonprofit Sector
“Timely, unique, and definitive . . . not only chronicles the history of the nonprofit sector but also provides a broad but critical analysis of its current state.” —Vartan Gregorian, President, Carnegie Corporation of New York The nonprofit sector has changed in fundamental ways in recent decades. As the sector has grown in scope and size, both domestically and internationally, the boundaries between for-profit, governmental, and charitable organizations have become intertwined. Nonprofits are increasingly challenged on their roles in mitigating or exacerbating inequality. And debates flare over the role of voluntary organizations in democratic and autocratic societies alike. The Nonp...
Crowding In, Crowding Out, the Janus Face Role of Group Diversity in Collective Action
Substantial evidence suggests that group diversity can generate a multiplier effect that significantly affects the public good produced in collective action. In this paper, we examine how such a multiplier effect impacts group formation or the matching of diverse agents. Our model shows that when group diversity or financial rewards to group diversity are low, increasing rewards to diversity can crowd-out individual incentives to cooperate and choose a socially superior investment strategy. The higher diversity rewards essentially create a higher implicit tax or requisite implicit compensations to sustain the cooperative voluntary production of the public good. For very diverse groups, by co...
