Methodological Premises of the Ethics of Social Entrepreneurship: From the Perspective of the Teachings of the Catholic Church

Summary/Abstract: Social entrepreneurship is an emerging discipline that provides innovative solutions to social issues such as exclusion, poverty, and unemployment. This field of study combines both economic and social aims. While the practical aspects of social entrepreneurship are valuable, good practice requires a deeper theoretical, ethical, and axiological understanding of social entrepreneurship. This study presents the current lack of knowledge of the normative and axiological determinants of social entrepreneurship due to the commonly held belief that every kind social activity is ethically right. In this context, the author formulates methodological premises of the ethics of social entrepreneurship based on Catholic social teaching.
