Socio-political and Structural Aspects of the Concept of Social Entrepreneurship: The Case of Serbia

The focus of this research are the ways of conceptualizing the phenomenon of social entrepreneurship, which in transitional and developed capitalist societies alike, rely on cognitive models shaped by divergent cultural and socio-political contexts. To be more specific, these cognitive models emerge from different theoretical concepts of social entrepreneurship, as well as from contextually different ways of combining the invariant, structural elements of the concept, both of which are dialectically positioned within the neoliberal capitalism ideology discourse. Within the interaction among the elements constituting the structure of the concept of social entrepreneurship (such as social innovation, civic collectivism, an employment of members of marginalized social groups) and the overall neoliberal ideology discourse, which on its own behalf, operates in accordance with certain logical rules as any other discursive formation does, numerous contradictions and paradoxes emerge. The first chapter of this study critically examines the role of social entrepreneurship within the neoliberal capitalism framework through a comparative analysis with philanthropic endeavors and commercial (traditional, profit-oriented) entrepreneurship, as well as by comparing the diverse ways in which this phenomenon is defined in various socio-political contexts. The process of establishing the social entrepreneurship sector in Serbia, initiated in the post-2008 period reached its normative conclusion with the enactment of a unified law regulating this entrepreneurial activity in 2022. However, it remains incomplete both in terms of the cultural conceptualization of the phenomenon and its practical implementation perspective. This assumption is further examined in the second chapter of this paper in relation to the ideas regarding the social and political cultural heritage legacy, constructed by both policy makers and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) engaged in the social protection system which, on their behalf, during the specified period assume the role of social entrepreneurship promoters and emerge as primary contributors to its development. In the third chapter of this study, an exploration of the conditions and operationalization possibilities of key elements within the social entrepreneurship concept is undertaken. This analysis is illustrated through the services provided to the elderly citizens, which provides a framework for developing the thesis on the incomplete process of establishing the social entrepreneurship sector. Subsequently, the fourth and concluding chapter contextualizes these findings within the processes of constructing social issues pertaining aging and unemployment. In addition to drawing the attention to the distinct characteristics and the potential of social entrepreneurship, this research seeks to initiate a discussion focused on exploring possibilities of overcoming the predominantly constraining conditions and factors that influence the further development of this type of entrepreneurial activity within the transitional Serbian society.

Analysing Social Entrepreneurship's Legal and Regulatory Frameworks Using Collaborative Innovation

Objective: The concept of social entrepreneurship, which combines commercial competence with social impact, has recently emerged as a major driving force in the effort to overcome intractable societal problems. This research takes a deep dive into a critical analysis of legal and regulatory frameworks and how they affect the field of social entrepreneurship. Knowing these frameworks is crucial because of their impact on social enterprise development and performance. However, there are a number of difficulties created by the interplay of social entrepreneurship and legal norms. These include things like generic legal frameworks, vague terminology, competing requirements, and insufficient resources. Creating conditions that allow social companies to thrive over the long term requires overcoming these obstacles.
 
 Method: Combining comparative legal research with stakeholder engagements and impact evaluations, the paper proposes an Adaptable Regulatory Legal Design Using Collaborative Innovation (ARLD-CI). The objective of this method is to create flexible legal frameworks that can accommodate the wide range of social enterprise business models while still meeting the requirements of existing laws. The research conducted proves that specialized legal frameworks (SLF) can increase creativity, funding possibilities, and social impact.
 
 Result: Potential changes in the law and regulation are modelled using hypothetical situations to see how they might affect social businesses, stakeholders, and the ecosystem as a whole. Using this ARLD-CI method, policymakers and stakeholders can better anticipate and prepare for the consequences of proposed regulatory changes when compared to SLF.
 
 Conclusion: Based on the Sensitivity Factor, Long-Term Sustainability, Social Entrepreneurship Performance Metrics, a simulation research investigation is conducted.

Promoting Inclusiveness for Organic Rice Value Chain in Bumdesa Mukti Saluyu

Organic agriculture promotion could be a potential approach for eliminating fertilizer subsidies in Indonesia. Indonesia is the world’s third-largest producer of rice, and rice is a staple meal for most of the population. The Kanem Farmers Group operates 12,5 hectares of organic land for growing organic rice in the Sumedang Regency. The operations of BUMDesa Mukti Saluyu are founded on the concept of social entrepreneurship to boost the potential of villages. The main concern of BUMDesa Mukti Saluyu is the insufficient potential of organic rice in Cikurubuk Village, which necessitates strategic planning to establish a competitive advantage and organizational capacities for participating in the organic rice value chain while maintaining its vision of improving the economic well-being in the farmer society. The study employs both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. In the investigation of the outcomes produced from the in-depth interview, the qualitative data analysis method will employ the Interactive model developed by Miles and Huberman. The quantitative analysis makes use of technical abilities and value-added evaluation. Based on the analysis, promoting inclusivity is key to developing a competitive advantage for BUMDesa Mukti Saluyu. Recognizing the significance of collaboration with multiple stakeholders, BUMDesa Mukti Saluyu must conduct an integration of stakeholders involved in the organic rice value chain. Farmers, agribusiness companies, processors, distributors, and consumers play vital roles. The enabling environment, encompassing policies, standards, and investments, influence sustainable production practices and market access. The current integrated model provides a comprehensive framework to increase smallholder farmers’ participation in the organic rice value chain through project delineation and policy interventions.

Bracing up for financial inclusivity: the CabDost way

Learning outcomes The learning outcomes of this study are as follows: 1. understand the role of financial inclusivity in the sustainable development of a nation; 2. examine the concept of social entrepreneurship and identify the skills needed to be a social entrepreneur; 3. analyze the opportunities and challenges faced by social entrepreneurs, especially in an emerging economy; and 4. assess the feasible options with respect to upscaling and expansion. Case overview/synopsis Yamuna Sastry, a young woman from a traditional Indian family, had set out to achieve her dream of financial inclusivity by helping the underprivileged in her country gain financial independence and credibility. When she was approached by a cab driver to file tax returns for him, a new venture took shape in her mind, and along with a partner, CabDost, a socially driven financial advisory start-up was created to provide financial advisory services exclusively for cab drivers. CabDost had been instrumental in making over 15,000 cab drivers financially literate, instilling in them a culture of compliance, getting them tax refunds and enabling the Indian Government recover eight crores in taxes. The success of financial inclusivity among cab drivers inspired CabDost to extend its financial services to truck drivers, auto drivers, housekeeping staff and other contractual workforce. The company found it challenging to address the demands of the increasing customer base with its available technical resources. The absence of an in-house tech team and the need for an all-in-one tech platform to provide a wide variety of financial services induced CabDost to explore other options. Dvara Money, a neo bank offering financial services, approached CabDost with a merger proposal. Though it was a lucrative offer, the founding members were apprehensive as they knew that most of the mergers failed because of myriad reasons. They were contemplating on their next move as they were in a dilemma about whether to develop a technical team in-house or to go ahead with the merger. Complexity academic level The case can be taught to business management students as a part of the introductory course on entrepreneurship or social entrepreneurship. The case can be used specifically to make the students understand the role of financial inclusivity in the sustainable development of a nation, the concept of social entrepreneurship, the journey of social entrepreneurs in the financial inclusivity space, right from ideation to execution, the challenges faced in the bargain, survival mechanisms adopted and the various options available for further growth and expansion.
