Sažetak
Social entrepreneurship in Croatia has emerged recently. As a new concept, its understanding is still not ‘constructed’ in policy and among the general public. This paperwill attempt to articulate what social entrepreneurship is understood to be in the policy and public discourse in Croatia. We will analyse the positioning of the concept in relation to other similar concepts in the third sector and the embeddedness of terminology and meanings attributed to social entrepreneurship in our context. In particular, we will analyse the public attitudes and perceptions of key stakeholders and decision makers. The discussion will reflct the way in which an understanding of the sector has an impact on its visibility and represents a barrier to further development. As sources, we will use desk analysis of relevant research and literature and partly interviews with key stakeholders in the sector carried out in the FP7 project “Third Sector Impact” and the doctoral dissertation research “Third Sector Impact in Croatia”
