9th International Social Innovation Research Conference in partnership with the Social
Innovation and Entrepreneurship Research Conference and EMES:
December 12-14 2017, At Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia
Paper abstract and panel proposals due: March 28, 2017
The ninth annual International Social Innovation Research Conference (ISIRC 2017) will explore
social innovation within and beyond the organisation. It invites research-led reflection on the
organisational boundaries recast by social innovation, the systemic imperatives of a growing
focus on social innovation, and the cross-cutting implications of these for theory and practice.
Empirical, conceptual and practice-informed research contributions are encouraged.

Social Enterprise and Networks. Special issue call for papers from Social Enterprise Journal:
Deadline for submission: January 24th, 2018.
Networks, and their role in the entrepreneurial process, has been the subject of significant
study in entrepreneurship literature (see for example Birley, 1986; Greve & Salaff, 2003;
Newbert et al 2014). In contrast, and despite widespread acknowledgement of the importance
of networks for social entrepreneurs (Austin et al, 2006), social enterprises (Jenner, 2016; Lyon
& Fernandez, 2012), and in wider processes of social entrepreneurship and innovation (Smith &
Stephens 2010; Dufays & Huybrechts, 2014), scholarship explicitly examining social enterprise
and networks, and in which relationships between them are centre stage, remains limited.
Similarly, there are still few examples of social enterprise literature applying network based
theories, despite identification by Dacin et al (2011) of networks and social entrepreneurship as
a key area of research opportunity and theory development for scholars in the field. This special
issue aims to contribute towards addressing this gap in knowledge and theory about social
enterprise and networks. We invite empirical and conceptual papers addressing this subject.

Abstract: The shift of services out of state provision has been revitalized through a wave of policies
linked to helping people make informed choices about health and social care and to extend competition
and choice. This paper considers the rise of social enterprise and public service mutuals in the UK in the
landscape of austerity, public sector rationalization, and re-structuring and draws on examples to
demonstrate emerging alternative delivery models.
Resumen: El siguiente artculo reflexiona sobre las polticas pblicas que se han diseado e
implementando para la economa solidaria en Colombia. Sostiene que en el pas se institucionaliz una
visin restrictiva que la define a partir de ciertas formas organizativas jurdicamente reconocidas, lo que
ha tenido profundas consecuencias en el desarrollo de este sector y en las polticas implementadas
hacia l. Hoy cuando la sociedad colombiana busca poner fin a un conflicto armado que la ha afectado
por dcadas y construir una sociedad en paz, se requiere volver la mirada sobre lo sustantivo de la
solidaridad y la economa solidaria, lo cual implica revisar los paradigmas establecidos.
Abstract: Friendship societies are a specific type of voluntary associations that aim primarily to support a
definable public benefit purposeeither an activity or a public or nonprofit entity. Over the past 20
years, these organizations have been mushrooming in Germany and elsewhere. More than 75,000
friendship societies are currently registered in Germany alone, and meanwhile they account for the
majority of newly established associations. However, the general public typically perceives them as
unreliable substitutes for the overburdened state. To assess whether these organizations can actually be
reduced to this substitution function, the article draws on qualitative interviews with 70 chairpersons
from various friendship societies in a German municipality. The study shows that friendship societies do
much more than merely assuming responsibility for public benefit purposes and suggests focusing
further research on the participatory potential of these associations.
Resumo: este artigo prope uma nova leitura terico-analtica para o estudo dos processos de inovao
social promovidos por atores da sociedade civil na esfera pblica, com base na sociologia pragmtica
francesa. Parte de uma discusso sobre o lugar das iniciativas da sociedade civil na ao pblica na
atualidade. Em seguida, faz uma incurso no debate sobre a incidncia da sociedade civil na esfera
pblica, buscando evidenciar em que a sociologia pragmtica francesa pode auxiliar para uma nova
compreenso desse processo. Finalmente, relaciona os debates sobre ao coletiva da sociedade civil,
inovao social e ao pblica, sob uma tica pragmatista, propondo um enfoque analtico particular
para compreenso dos processos de codefinio e codomnio de situaes problemticas em arenas
pblicas.
Abstract: The term social innovation is used to describe a broad range of organizational and inter-
organizational activity that is ostensibly designed to address the most deep-rooted problems of
society, such as poverty, inequality and environmental degradation. Theoretically, however, this
presents challenges because many of the ideas and practices grouped under the label of social
innovation may have relatively little in common. In this article, we outline a simple framework for
categorizing different types of social innovation social entrepreneurship, social intrapreneurship, and
social extrapreneurship which we believe provides a useful basis for theory building in this area. We
also offer suggestions for future research with the potential to deepen, extend and refine our typology.
Abstract: Eco-friendly technologies (EFTs) and microfinance provide impetus for securing the livelihoods
5
of forest-living communities. Use of EFTs arrests the degradation of forests in addition to enhancing
people's livelihoods. Forest-living people adopt unsustainable harvesting methods due to a lack of
access to and unawareness of EFTs. Sustainable harvesting of forest produce by employing EFTs reduced
harm to the forest by 4050%. Microfinance accessibility is essential for the adoption of EFT at
community level for value addition to Non-Wood Forest Products (NWFPs), which enhanced livelihoods
by 200300%. The main objective of this paper is to investigate how EFT and microfinance provide
impetus to the value addition by NWFPs and the securing of the livelihoods of forest-living communities.
