Abstract

The social entrepreneurship (SE) discourse habitually casts social entrepreneurs as heroic, creating economic and social value, whereas those whom they strive to assist are portrayed as disadvantaged and in need of interventions. This implies an implicit differentiation between knowing, agentic entrepreneurs and less-knowing, more passive beneficiaries. In this article, we seek to unfold the subtle ordering of relations in SE and problematize power-related aspects and ideological influences that potentially overshadow dimensions of mutuality and relationality inherent to SE. From an examination of two cases, we hypothesize that differentiations between knowing selves and learning others tend to disintegrate when entrepreneurs and beneficiaries enter into closer interaction. Adopting a postcolonial framework, we identify three forms of relations in SE: transactional, ambiguous/interactional and transcending.

社会创业中自我与他人的相互关系:并非不可能完成的任务?
社会企业家(SE)的话语习惯性地将社会企业家塑造成英雄,创造经济和社会价值,而那些他们努力帮助的人则被描绘成弱势群体,需要干预。这意味着在知情的、代理的企业家和不太知情的、更被动的受益者之间存在隐性的区别。在本文中,我们试图揭示社会主义社会中微妙的关系秩序,并提出与权力有关的方面和意识形态影响的问题,这些方面和意识形态影响可能掩盖了社会主义社会固有的相互关系和关系的维度。通过对两个案例的考察,我们假设,当企业家和受益者进入更密切的互动时,认识自我和学习他人之间的差异往往会消失。采用后殖民框架,我们确定了SE中三种形式的关系:事务性、模糊/互动和超越性。

期刊介绍: The Scandinavian Journal of Management (SJM) provides an international forum for innovative and carefully crafted research on different aspects of management. We promote dialogue and new thinking around theory and practice, based on conceptual creativity, reasoned reflexivity and contextual awareness. We have a passion for empirical inquiry. We promote constructive dialogue among researchers as well as between researchers and practitioners. We encourage new approaches to the study of management and we aim to foster new thinking around management theory and practice. We publish original empirical and theoretical material, which contributes to understanding management in private and public organizations. Full-length articles and book reviews form the core of the journal, but focused discussion-type texts (around 3.000-5.000 words), empirically or theoretically oriented, can also be considered for publication. The Scandinavian Journal of Management is open to different research approaches in terms of methodology and epistemology. We are open to different fields of management application, but narrow technical discussions relevant only to specific sub-fields will not be given priority.
