Abstract
The literature on social innovation grew quickly in the early 2000s and is now voluminous. One definition suggests the “penetration of business ideas, management practices, and market principles into the world of and nonprofits and government”. This American styled view puts the emphasis on social enterprise and social entrepreneurship, as is evidenced by the Stanford Center for Social Innovation in the Graduate School of Business.
