Paperback. Condition: Wie neu. 228 pp. ; 22 cm x 15 cm, 320 g. A perfect copy. - A school of thought hails microcredit as a social innovation, a messiah to enable people to help themselves out of poverty through entrepreneurship. An opposing school of thought considers microcredit as a capitalist demon ensnaring the poor in poverty and debt. The layman and the million professionals working in this industry are at a loss to make sense of the stories that circulate about microcredit. This book provides this sense-making, useful for students, professionals, investors and researchers who are attracted to this field. Poverty is a wicked problem, akin to Hydra, the Greek mythological monster with many heads. As microcredit tries to balance multiple objectives to grapple with these multiple heads, it has needed to shift the weapons it uses. The arsenal for this battle has needed new philosophies, changing ethics, differing missions, institutional partnerships, the latest technologies and new products. These rapid innovations have differed in speed across the world, with adaptations in developed and developing countries. This book presents these with many case studies and field research. It is clear that development initiatives, no matter how financial, cross academic disciplines. At the very least, they affect disciplines such as economics, business management, sociology, history, geography, politics, legal systems in place, as well as science, which is evolving at such a high speed. The book provides this multidisciplinary view and motivates future research and practices. - Contents: Chapter 1.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - What if countries could issue equity What if investors could own a piece of a nation's future, sharing in its growth, its governance, and its accountability This book explores macroequity - sovereign-issued shares - as a thought experiment in public finance. Not a policy proposal. A question: what if The argument unfolds across four dimensions. Could macroequity reduce the debt traps that leave developing countries perpetually paying more than they receive Could it align investor incentives with the governance reforms that reduce corruption and serve the governed Could it mobilise the capital that climate finance needs but politics refuses to deliver Could it - at the margin, and with no guarantee - make conflict a little less profitable and peace a little more so When this idea was first proposed four years ago, the operational barriers seemed formidable: how do you calculate a real-time fiscal surplus across thousands of government transactions How do you verify environmental claims without trusting governments to mark their own work How do you detect corruption at a national scale Artificial intelligence has quietly changed the answer to each of these questions. The tools now exist - deployed in financial markets, fraud detection, and satellite monitoring - and this book shows how they apply to sovereign equity financing.From the candlelit homes of Burundi to the trading floors of international capital markets, this book traces what macroequity could mean for the world's poorest countries and the investors who might, one day, choose to believe in their future.Rigorously bounded by its limitations. Unashamed in its ambition.For thinkers, dreamers, and anyone willing to suspend 'that's impossible' long enough to ask 'but what if it weren't '. …

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Using evidence from the microfinancesector, which is considered a leading sector of social entrepreneurship, this book attempts to push the boundaries of research in this field. While recent studies consider that commercial enterprises, not-for-profits and social enterprises are formed by entrepreneurs with different personal identities, they do not explain why these personalities may change before they convert their social enterprises, and change further at the stage of transitioning into commercial enterprises. Presenting a theory of development and evolution for social enterprises which examines the dynamics associated with change, impact and growth and an in-depth critical view of motivation, funding and profit, this book examines how that impacts the social mission and enterprise structure in the wake of hybrid and for-profit models and corporate philanthropy. The author highlightsthe 'cracks' in social entrepreneurship and asks how they are being filled, institutionally.…
