Volume 1: This volume is the culmination of many discussions among
the editors over the years, especially at the Sustainability,
Ethics and Entrepreneurship (SEE) Conference, related to the growth
and institutionalization of environmental and social
entrepreneurship. Research on these two forms of entrepreneurial
action has tried to keep pace with what is occurring in the field.
While the research is diverse, attracting scholars across many
disciplines and from all parts of the world, it is still in the
formative stages. This volume seeks to take stock of the literature
and report the state of the art in environmental and social
entrepreneurship. In particular, it seeks to explore new
theoretical directions that blend traditional notions of economic
efficiency and social welfare and new ways of measuring and
empirically testing these phenomena. The chapters in this volume
demonstrate the diverse philosophical, methodological, and
theoretical techniques to studying these forms of entrepreneurship.
We expect this volume will contribute to this burgeoning research
and that researchers will engage in theory development for the
foreseeable future, as new business models are developed, tested,
abandoned, and evolved.Volume 2: This volume spotlights
cutting-edge research, innovative methodologies, and provocative
thinking by organizational scholars and leaders committed to
advancing the global sustainability agenda. Each chapter focuses on
advancing one or more United Nations (UN) 2030 Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs). The chapter sequence follows a general
logic of SDG numerical order and breadth. Overall, this compendium
provides critical insights, practical strategies and tools, and
timely inspiration to motivate individual and collective engagement
with and achievement of the SDGs. With a decade remaining to
achieve the 2030 Agenda, this volume supports sustainable
development globally, through: identification of key challenges;
theoretical, empirical, and practical exploration of potential
solutions; and sharing of actionable findings. Each chapter makes
an impactful contribution by spotlighting opportunities for
advancing best-in-class efforts toward the achievement of the SDGs.
Chapters represent diverse scholarly perspectives and include a
representative range of focal SDGs, organizational contexts,
applications, and initiatives from Africa, Asia, Europe, North and
South America, and spanning national borders.Volume 3: Historically
religious institutions have been at the forefront of social change,
yet religion and spirituality are rarely discussed in contemporary
entrepreneurship research. We challenge this oversight and argue
that by ignoring the fundamental principles that define an
overwhelming majority of people all over the world, our scholarship
risks being partial, incomplete and thus misleading. This volume
presents a selection of entrepreneurship perspectives - studies,
essays and analyses - that integrate religion and spirituality with
social change. We have deliberately sought chapters that are edgy
and novel, to give different nuances on this integration of
religion and spirituality with entrepreneurship for social change.
