Given the global crises confronting the world today, it is
important to interrogate the notion of "the modern state" and to
evaluate its effectiveness in providing security and services for
its populations, including the most disadvantaged and vulnerable.
This book investigates the modern state's capacity to serve its
constituents by examining the organisations that facilitate two key
elements of contemporary living: social capital and social
enterprise. These elements are explored in a series of rich case
studies located in Australia, Ireland and Bangladesh, with broader
implications for policy and practice in the rest of the world. The
case studies highlight the growing importance of social enterprise
and social entrepreneurship in fostering social capital and in
contributing to the idea of "the enabling state". This book will
appeal to researchers, policy-makers and community leaders working
in business, education, employment pathways, homelessness, housing,
local government, mental health, public administration and refugee
resettlement.
