Notă biografică

Dr Rory Ridley-Duff worked for 12 years as a director of the workers co-operative Computercraft Ltd, and has built his academic career through a PhD study of School Trends Ltd during its conversion to a social enterprise. His primary research interest is the process by which democratic relations develop in both informal and formal organisations and affect governing processes.

He has now authored 35 scholarly papers, four books and two novels. In addition to this book, he has published `The Case for FairShares¿ to articulate findings from a decade of action research at Sheffield Business School, that explores social enterprise as a route to solidarity between social entrepreneurs, producers, consumers and small investors (see www.fairshares.coop). His research has been published in Human Relations, Corporate Governance: An International Review, the Industrial Relations Journal, International Journal of Entrepreneurial Behaviour and Research, the Social Enterprise Journal and Journal of Cooperative Studies with best paper awards from Emerald Publishing and the Institute of Small Business and Entrepreneurship.

He remains connected to practice through directorships with Social Enterprise Europe and the FairShares Association. His aca­demic leadership roles include Chair of the PRME Group at Sheffield Business School and Acting Chair of the International Cooperative Business Education Consortium (ICBEC).

Recenzii

The first edition of this book has become a standard resource. I am thrilled to see that the second edition makes a strong connection to the theme of responsible management, about which there is much to say in the social enterprise context. 

A comprehensive overview of social enterprise – from its history and development to integrated accounting, investment models and governance. You will come out on the other side ready to lead change and question the norms of traditional market approaches.

An important contribution to social enterprise scholarship that is also of considerable interest to practitioners and policy makers. Its integration of management frameworks, social theory and public policy approaches provides a fresh set of perspectives and insights on this increasingly influential sector.
Understanding Social Enterprise presents complex and unified analysis of the topic which will allow both academic and nonacademic readers to reflect deeply on social enterprise as legitimately comprising a fourth sector as opposed to a subsector or a hybrid between the public and the private sectors.

This book is a must read for scholars, practitioners, and students of social enterprise and/or social entrepreneurship to understand the theoretical, managerial, and practical complexities these firms embrace to achieve success. Innovation purpose and mutuality/reciprocity are collaborative dimensions which can transform the maturing field of social enterprise.
