Social Entrepreneurship in the Age of Atrocities provides crucial
insight into social entrepreneurship from visionaries in the field
as well as other experienced practitioners and renowned theorists.
While this book focuses on social entrepreneurship as it relates to
genocide and other atrocities, the experiences and lessons learned
also apply to additional critical social, economic, legal and
political problems such as healthcare, development, education and
literacy. The authors in this book address the clear need for
further examination of social entrepreneurship. They discuss the
challenges, obstacles and opportunities of the field and lend new
insight to the concept, history and methodologies of social
entrepreneurship. The book profiles case studies based on some of
the most innovative and effective social enterprises addressing
atrocities, including the National Vision for Sierra Leone, Asylum
Access, the Kigali Public Library, Indego Africa, Generation
Rwanda, Orphans Against AIDS, Americans for Informed Democracy, and
Children of Abraham. Social Entrepreneurship in the Age of
Atrocities will inform, instruct and build the community of social
entrepreneurs. This unique, essential collection of first-hand
accounts is an inspiring and informative addition to the evolving
social entrepreneurship literature. It will be of particular
interest to social entrepreneurs; students, scholars and
practitioners of business, management, public policy, social policy
and development studies; anyone with a philanthropic mindset; and
all those who are invested in creating and maintaining a socially
responsible, accountable world. Contributors: A. Alexander, E.E.
