Social Entrepreneurship and Innovation in Rural Europe investigates
how social entrepreneurship advances social innovation in rural
Europe and contributes to fighting social and economic challenges
in these regions. Based on longitudinal data collected in four
European countries, this book explains how social enterprises enact
their business model based on an entrepreneurial reconfiguration of
resources they obtain from their network relations, and how their
activities empower local communities, driving change and eventually
innovation. In these activities, the entrepreneurial mindset and
the role as intermediary between different groups and domains of
society help to reframe challenges into opportunities. The argument
in this book develops from a description of what social enterprises
report to do to an analysis of how they do it, and results in an
explanation of why they take these actions. In doing so it
gradually broadens the view from a focus on the social enterprises
themselves to their interactions and network partners and, finally,
to their positioning in societal fields. The presented model
complements network theory with the concept of strategic action
fields. This book reveals the crucial role of social
entrepreneurship in innovation in rural regions, and the rich
insights provided have far reaching implications for research,
practice and policy. This book will appeal to everyone interested
in the interface of social entrepreneurship, innovation, and
regional/rural development, either on a practical or academic
level.
