Abstract

There has been a rapid growth in the social enterprise sector since the early years of the 21st century. This is evident in many countries and is widely regarded as a very positive humanitarian development, though it is not easy to explain exactly what the sector involves. Accordingly, as well as discussing defnitional issues, this article draws attention to factors operating to prevent the social enterprise sector from achieving its full potential, and considers strategies that need to be followed to empower social enterprises and ensure their sustainability.
