Research, Theory and Comment

We have included in this section of the Knowledge Base some of the seminal pieces of thinking about social enterprise and social entrepreneurship.  However we have also created a separate subsection for an area that has generally been ignored and on which NCNE is focused particularly: setting a price for your services or products.

The section begins however with two overviews from Dennis Young. 

Social Entrepreneurship; the State of the Art

Social Enterprise and Entrepreneurship explored through a modern day version of the Canterbury Tales


by Dennis R. Young
Nonprofit Finance Theory
The role of "earned income" in nonprofit revenue in the context of the overall theory of financing nonprofit organizations 
by Dennis R. Young
Earned Income; Pricing in a Nonprofit

Members of NCNE's network have produced most of the significant thinking that has been done on pricing of nonprofit services and activities. Some of this material is reproduced here.


Social Enterprise and Entrepreneurship

Here are a series of papers that inform the practice of using market mechanisms to achieve social impact.
