ABSTRACT

This paper investigates the development of the Social Enterprise (SE) in Thailand. Emerging from the non-profit sector in the 1970s, Thailand is now experiencing the development of new state-private policy interventions to stimulate development of SE. We combine the work of Kerlin on the socio-economic environment with the theories of market creation from economic sociology. We pinpoint for the first time the key institutions, networks, cognitive framings and policy initiatives of SE emergence and development in Thailand. In addition, we identify a new country type Social Enterprise Semi Strategic Diverse model form, we term an Authoritarian State-Corporate model.

摘要

本文调查了泰国社会企业 (SE) 的发展。从 1970 年代的非营利部门中脱颖而出，泰国现在正在经历新的国家 - 私人政策干预措施的发展，以刺激 SE 的发展。我们将 Kerlin 在社会经济环境方面的工作与经济社会学的市场创造理论相结合。我们首次确定了泰国社会经济出现和发展的关键机构、网络、认知框架和政策举措。此外，我们确定了一种新的国家类型社会企业半战略多元化模型形式，我们称之为威权国家-企业模型。
