Abstract

In Part 1 of this volume, we introduced the concept of three-dimensional entrepreneurship. In this chapter, we go on to explore the policy strategy of supporting social entrepreneurship in a three-dimensional perspective to increase the sum of social entrepreneurship knowledge. We argue that institution and function must be differentiated for public policy on social entrepreneurship to succeed. In order to confirm the extraordinary features of social entrepreneurship and social enterprises in creating social value and achieving a social impact, based on the classification of entrepreneurship organizations and the three-dimensional outcome (economic–social–humanistic), an analysis map is presented to address entrepreneurship, the organizations resulting from entrepreneurship activities, and targets for commercial, humanistic, and social enterprises. The three-dimensional perspective results in new thinking on the outcome of social enterprises. In the end, strategic highlights of public policy are suggested.
