Navigating network governance: the role of social enterprise in local employment services
研究了澳大利亚四家工作整合型社会企业如何在地方就业服务系统中运作，发现其混合组织形式能吸引非传统资源并创造社会价值，但受限于超地方治理体系中的合法性不足。
Neoliberalisation of welfare has stimulated growth of hybrid organizational forms – including social enterprises – that bridge welfare objectives and market models of service provision. However, the role of social enterprises in governance networks remains underexplored. Drawing on a comparative case analysis of four work integration social enterprises (WISEs) in Australia, this paper examines how WISE operate within local employment services systems and labour markets. We find WISEs both attract non-traditional resources and generate social value in new ways as an effect of their hybrid organizational arrangements. However, their effectiveness is constrained by lack of legitimacy within supralocal governance systems.
