Recenzii
Taken from the Foreword: 'The book provides a clear picture of where we stand now in terms of research and practice, but additionally it provides provoking visions of what could be…. The potential for co-creating social, environmental, and economic value has not yet been fully tapped. This book contributes importantly to the realization of that vital goal.'
James E. Austin, the Eliot I. Snider and Family Professor of Business Administration, Emeritus at Harvard Business School, USA
Re-Imagining Partnership for the Social Good is set to make a worthwhile contribution to the study and practice of social entrepreneurship as well as contemporary debates about the value of democratic organisation in the field of business. Its cross-sector focus will have particular appeal to students interested in alternative business models that challenge the hegemony of the state and corporations in social and economic development.
Dr Rory Ridley-Duff, Senior Lecturer, Sheffield Business School, UK
This book comes at a critical time, as there is no more important mechanism for addressing global sustainability problems than constructive multi-sector relationships: we need to learn our way forward together. Social Partnerships for Responsible Business outlines the opportunities and challenges in working across sectors, and offers questions for reflection and dialogue to help us re-imagine possibilities. It is an invaluable resource for people from business, government, academia, and civil society - and since we are all of the above, that means everyone.
Barry Colbert, Associate Professor, Policy & Strategic Management, Wilfrid Laurier University, Canada

Descriere
Cross-sector partnerships are widely hailed as a critical means for addressing a wide array of social challenges such as climate change, poverty, education and health. Amid all the positive rhetoric of cross-sector partnerships though, critical voices point to the limited success of various initiatives in delivering genuine social change and in providing for real citizen participation. This collection, aided by contributions from leading academics, critically examines the motivations for, processes within and expected and actual outcomes of cross-sector partnerships.
