Module content

This module aims at introducing students to the multi- and inter-disciplinary nature of social entrepreneurship, and the human elements inherent within, in addition to the concepts and tools necessary for critical engagement with a wide range of theories and practices within the field. This module will engage especially with issues of overlaps or embeddedness between entrepreneurship and societies, and the redistributive elements within. This is not a ‘how to’ course; it is primarily concerned with the intellectual challenges involved in understanding the processes of industrial change. In addition to theory, the module will require students to discuss case studies of socio-economic embeddedness and models of social entrepreneurship from Africa, Asia and Europe.
