BST 286 - Social Entrepreneurship: Theorizing Global Trends4 credits
The aim of this course is to explore the concept of social entrepreneurship, with an emphasis on the need for an interdisciplinary, historical and global approach to understanding the trajectory that led to the notion of entrepreneurship increasingly being applied to activities that emphasize the importance of social change. Students will learn about the diversity of entrepreneurial organizations focusing on social change. A second analytical focus will be on critically examining the question of how and why various societies approach the issue of social challenges in a variety of ways, with a particular emphasis on why, both in the US and in the global context social entrepreneurship is increasingly identified as central to institutions with a social mission.
