neoliberalism by stealth exploring continuity and change within the uk social Enterprise Policy paradigm
Policy and Politics, 2017Co-Authors: Alex Nicholls, Simon TeasdaleAbstract:Social Enterprise has been portrayed as challenging neoliberalism, and alternatively, as neoliberalism by stealth. Here we conceptualise social Enterprise as a microparadigm nested within wider political and economic frameworks. Our analysis of continuity and change over a period of political and economic crisis in England demonstrates considerable evidence of normative change in the ideas underpinning social Enterprise policies. However, further analysis reveals that the (neoliberal) cognitive ideas underpinning the social Enterprise paradigm remained intact. This suggests that Policy paradigms can accommodate normative differences within a shared cognitive framework, and hence, are more fluid, and have greater longevity, than previously recognised.

distorted Policy transfer south korea s adaptation of uk social Enterprise Policy
Policy Studies, 2017Co-Authors: Chisung Park, Jooha Lee, Mark WildingAbstract:ABSTRACTThis study draws upon communicative processes in Policy transfer to consider the ways in which Policy may be adapted to context or distorted. The theoretical framework is used to investigate exactly what the South Korean government borrowed from UK social Enterprise Policy. Despite claims that the UK was the source of both the general Policy direction and the particular regulatory device, the Korean government did not learn about the specific contexts of the British Policy, nor attempt two-way communication with domestic stakeholders. Rather, the UK Policy was interpreted in accordance with the Korean government’s own ideas about how to utilize social Enterprise. Historical legacies of top-down decision-making played an important role in this process, as did the state’s role as a regulator which mobilizes the private sector to achieve Policy goals. The consequences have been negative for those organizations refused social Enterprise status under the Ministry of Labor’s strict approval system, as w...

social Enterprise Policy design constructing social Enterprise in the uk and korea
International Journal of Social Welfare, 2013Co-Authors: Chisung Park, Mark WildingAbstract:Taking the elusive definition of social Enterprise as its starting point, this study seeks to understand the impact of government policies on the development of social Enterprises in the national contexts of the UK and South Korea. The social construction of target populations is utilised as a theoretical framework in order to identify which factors influence government Policy. A comparison of the two countries over a 14-year period from 1997 to 2010 reveals that, despite very different contexts, governments in both countries have taken an instrumental approach to social Enterprise. This tendency is more pronounced in Korea however, where government has limited the input of stakeholders and used an approval system to control access to the social Enterprise name. The study concludes by recommending a more value-oriented approach to social Enterprise.

a comparative analysis of international corporate social responsibility standards as Enterprise Policy governance innovation guidelines
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, 2015Co-Authors: Petya Dankova, Milena Valeva, Tjaša ŠtrukeljAbstract:This research responds to the market demand for better understanding of the variety of corporate social responsibility (CSR)-standards from the market actors' perspective. Authors introduce the selected systems theory and holistic thinking needed for the implementation of CSR standards into the innovated Enterprise Policy. Historically built understanding of CSR is discussed, and existing international CSR initiatives/standards are compared. Taking the perspective of the market actors as participants who need orientation for embedding social responsibility into their Enterprise Policy, management and practice, authors focus on the most prominent CSR standards to detect their overlaps, distinctions, the extent and depth of CSR in them. On the basis of these findings, three types of CSR standards are identified. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
