Social entrepreneurship as a field in formation in Brazil: the Ashoka, Endeavor and Artemisia institutions role

Abstract:

The article analyzes the meanings that the term “social” assumes in the discourses of organizations and social entrepreneurs. The broader hypothesis is that these senses are in dispute in a field in formation and in search of asserting itself. The present clipping is limited to analyzing how the notion of “social” is operated by three central entrepreneurs agencies: Ashoka Brasil, Endeavor Brasil and Artemisia. For that, Pierre Bourdieu’s field theory is used.

Keywords:
