Carolina Bandinelli is a Lecturer in Media at the University of
Lincoln. She has previous worked as a senior
research for CREATe at Goldsmiiths College
Prepare to be surprised, intellectually inspired and entertained,
all at the same time. Bandinelli's highly original book represents
a landmark in the studies of the social enterprise by offering a
timely analysis of the under-examined practices and subjectivities
of young social entrepreneurs, who believe that they can "change
the world" precisely by embracing entrepreneurialism. Bandinelli
places the figure of the social entrepreneur firmly at the centre
of contemporary neoliberal capitalism's contradictions, thus
shedding compelling light on the complex and even troubling ethical
and political circumstances we all live in.
