ECON 387 - Social Entrepreneurship: Theorizing Global Trends

4 credits
Uses an interdisciplinary lens to explore how size, location, structure, mission and globalization have shaped decision making processes within social change organizations.  Focuses on nonprofits, cooperatives, and firms with a commitment to achieving corporate social responsibility.  A key question explored is why social entrepreneurship is increasingly associated with social change organizations. This question may be addressed through an exploration of both theoretical explanations and empirical examples of the economic, social and political challenges facing social change organizations.  Case studies will focus on both US and international contexts. Same as BST 387  and PSCI 387 . Corequisite: ECON 287 . CLA-Breadth/Social Science, CLA-Breadth/Interdisciplinary, CLA-Off Campus
