Social entrepreneurship has emerged as an important means of addressing grand challenges. Although research on the topic has accelerated, scholars have yet to articulate an overarching framework that links the different pathways taken by social entrepreneurs with the positive effects of these efforts. To address this shortcoming, we conducted a systematic literature review which enabled us to conceptually differentiate between social value and social change as distinct outcomes of social entrepreneurship and identify seven pathways for achieving these outcomes. Building on our analysis, we outline a research agenda for questions pertaining to: the dynamics between social value and social change; how contextual factors and social entrepreneurs influence various pathways; design principles of business models and innovations that facilitate social value and social change; and defining, measuring, and ensuring accountability for social value and social change.

社会价值和社会变革之路：社会创业文献的综合回顾

社会创业已成为应对重大挑战的重要手段。尽管对该主题的研究已经加速，但学者们尚未阐明一个总体框架，将社会企业家采取的不同途径与这些努力的积极影响联系起来。为了解决这一缺陷，我们进行了系统的文献综述，使我们能够从概念上区分社会价值和社会变革作为社会企业家精神的不同成果，并确定实现这些成果的七种途径。根据我们的分析，我们概述了以下问题的研究议程：社会价值与社会变革之间的动态；背景因素和社会企业家如何影响各种途径；促进社会价值和社会变革的商业模式和创新的设计原则；定义、衡量和确保社会价值和社会变革的责任。
