【 摘 要 】

In the last decade, social entrepreneurship has been in the focus of numerous discussions among business scholars around the world. Social enterprises typically represent hybrid organizations setting both commercial goals and social goals. This semi-commercial orientation may have its advantages (e.g., gaining support of stakeholders interested in helping society achieve certain objectives) and disadvantages (e.g., weaker commercial orientation could make social enterprises less viable and attractive for providers of financial and human capital). This study examines the opinions regarding the development of the social enterprise in Russia among the academics and practitioners focused on identifying the factors that may inhibit or stimulate social entrepreneurship in the country. A focus group comprising 24 experts with deep knowledge of the area has brainstormed the problem. Summarizing and conceptualizing these brainstorming sessions, we critique those that urge the state to quickly enhance its efforts to spur social entrepreneurship in Russia and propose a more organic and gradual way of developing the social enterprise.
