Social enterpreneurship: example of selected countries of the European Union

Entrepreneurs create value. Global problems such as poverty have been heightened by the economic crisis lately and continue to affect the lives of many people all over the world and bring a great deal of interest to the social economy, and even to the very phenomenon of social entrepreneurship as an important determinant of the social economy. Social entrepreneurship describes a set of behaviors that are exceptional. This paper analyzes the notion, perception and degree of social economy development with an emphasis on social entrepreneurship in the selected countries of the European Union and Croatia. The analysis encompasses the concept and development of selected economically advanced, older members of the European Union, and relies on post- socialist countries at the same time as the newer members of the European Union. By analyzing the facts, it is trying to prove that the social economy and social entrepreneurship is more developed and more fragmented in the older and more developed countries of the European Union. This fact is further evidenced by the level of employment within the social economy in the European Union where post- socialist countries lag behind for the more developed countries of the European Union.
