DISTINCTION OF SUSTAINABLE SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP FROM OTHER (NON) CORRELATIVE CONCEPTS
DISTINCTION OF SUSTAINABLE SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP FROM OTHER (NON) CORRELATIVE CONCEPTS

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents and distinguishes the large number of shapes and models that essentially contain the concept of double bottom line and triple bottom line. Distinguishing between sustainable and unsustainable concepts of social entrepreneurship and its (non) correlative concepts, whose primary mission is to create social and environmental value, results in giving a clear picture and recommendation of the most optimal sustainable model of social enterprises, which through their work will contribute to sustainable socio-economic changes. The research for this paper identifies a number of sustainable and unsustainable forms of social enterprise, as well as other related concepts, which outline their mission to address the problems expressed through the dimensions of people, planet and profit. An overview of the many examples of the practice of such organizations, or enterprises, allows verifying the introduced thesis that sustainable social entrepreneurship, which in its work applies the trinity of economic, social and environmental value, is an optimal example of a sustainable concept that can contribute to sustainable socio-economic change and provide environmental care.
