This book is open access under a CC BY license. Interest in social innovation continues to rise, from governments setting up social innovation 'labs' to large corporations developing social innovation strategies. Yet theory lags behind practice, and this hampers our ability to understand social innovation and make the most of its potential. This collection brings together work by leading social innovation researchers globally, exploring the practice and process of researching social innovation, its nature and effects. Combining theoretical chapters and empirical studies, it shows how social innovation is blurring traditional boundaries between the market, the state and civil society, thereby developing new forms of services, relationships and collaborations. It takes a critical perspective, analyzing potential downsides of social innovation that often remain unexplored or are glossed over, yet concludes with a powerful vision of the potential for social innovation to transform society. It aims to be a valuable resource for students and researchers, as well as policymakers and others supporting and leading social innovation.

Casi termino de leerlo y de verdad que inspira a la acción, sobretodo en estos tiempos de incertidumbre respecto al ámbito de los negocios y su impacto social.

As a social innovation/ social science MSc student I highly recommend this book. The last character sums up my thinking perfectly. And the chapters which come before provide some excellent case studies.

日本では、まだまだソーシャルイノベーションについて、認知度がないですが、欧米では、1990年代から政府に専門部署も設けられ、様々な取組が官民でなされています。そうした世界の動向について、本格的に調査した初めての本です。編者も、ソーシャル・ファイナンスの世界の第一人者であるオックスフォード大学にアレックス・ニコラス教授であり、とても参考になります。日本でも、ソーシャル・イノベーションを促進するための政策を推進する必要があります。
