商品描述

A silent revolution is underway, initiated by social entrepreneurs, pragmatist visionaries who are challenging prevalent business motives and methods to invent market-based solutions to eradicate social injustice. Yet, many fail to succeed and reach real scale, and there are few books that question why or offer real practical solutions to this predicament.

Based on original research, the authors uncover why impressive solutions fail to scale up. This book is filled with international case studies of what can be done "within the system", and augmented by the argument that the traditional division between "for profit" business that creates economic wealth and the "not for profit" public and social sectors is breaking down. It examines the solutions that work in some critical areas such as access to energy, safe drinking water, housing and financial services, as well as what can be done to get these innovations out of the lab and into the plant.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

一場靜默的革命正在進行中,這場革命由社會企業家發起,他們是挑戰當前商業動機和方法的務實願景者,旨在發明基於市場的解決方案以消除社會不公。然而,許多企業未能成功並達到真正的規模,且很少有書籍質疑這一現象或提供實際的解決方案。

根據原始研究,作者揭示了為何令人印象深刻的解決方案無法擴大規模。本書充滿了國際案例研究,探討在「系統內」可以做些什麼,並強調傳統上「營利性」企業創造經濟財富與「非營利」公共和社會部門之間的界限正在崩潰。它檢視了在一些關鍵領域(如能源獲取、安全飲用水、住房和金融服務)有效的解決方案,以及如何將這些創新從實驗室推向實際應用。
