Measurement Practices

Social enterprises are described as organizations with dual objectives—social and commercial. While the measurement of commercial performance isrelatively straightforward and well understood, our understanding of the factorsrelated to measuring social performance is more ambiguous. Is the adoption ofsocial performance measurement (SPM) practices more related to external pressures, such as the need to demonstrate legitimacy to funders and peers, or is it more closely related to the growing rationalization within the social sector? We examine the relationship between external and internal factors and the adoption of SPM using a novel dataset of 1864 nascent social enterprises from around the world. Our findings suggest support for the argument that the adoption of SPM in socialenterprise is related to the growing rationalization of the social sector, whichchallenges some of the past research on this topic, and provides a more nuancedperspective of SPM in social enterprise.

This chapter analyses inns, taverns, and public houses in their social context, exploring their organizational identity and the social positions of their owners/tenants. It examines how patrons express their class, gender, and national identity by participation in different kinds of sociality. Seventeenth- and eighteenth-century hostelries afforded more opportunities for cross-class sociability than in later centuries. Social mixing was facilitated because the venues fulfilled multiple economic, social, and political functions, thereby providing room for social interaction apart from communal drinking and eating. Yet, even in these earlier centuries, each type of hostelry already had a distinctive class character, shaping its organizational identity. Division along lines of class hardened, and social segregation increased in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, up to World War II. In the post-War era, increased democratization of society at large became reflected in easier social mixing in pubs. Despite this democratization, during the late twentieth century the dominant image of pubs as a working-class institution persisted.

Popular Drama

In order to assess Argentine New Theatre and traditional popular drama as comprising a phenomenon of convergence and continuity, one needs first to examine both forms in their relationship to hegemonic culture. Culture is viewed here not in monolithic terms, but rather as defined by its organic ties to a specific socio-political context. Consequently, the central question to be addressed is the way those ties become explicit in the artistic products themselves and, most importantly, in their functionality within the social sector they are inserted in. That functionality defines the ideological line between popular and mass culture, and determines the dynamic links between the New Theatre and traditional dramatic forms, in spite of obvious differences in discourse.

A pesar de la globalización de la economía y los incesantes intentos por subordinar todas las formas de producción a la lógica de la acumulación capitalista, la resistencia de los trabajadores persiste mediante la implementación de diversos modelos de gestión social del trabajo, entre los que destacan los puestos en marcha por los actores de la economía popular, la economía social y la economía solidaria. Precisar la identidad organizacional de estas tres formas de trabajo, para el caso específico de México, constituye el propósito principal del presente artículo, habiéndose identificado que, por su naturaleza, el sistema de trabajo que corresponde a cada una de ellas es de tipo autónomo, asociativo-autogestionario y asociativo-autogestionario-solidario, respectivamente. Despite the globalization of the economy and the incessant attempts to subordinate all forms of production to the logic of capitalist accumulation, the resistance of workers persists through the implementation of various models of social work management, among which the posts launched by the actors of the popular economy, the social economy and the solidarity economy. Specify the organizational identity of these three forms of work, for the specific case of Mexico, is the main purpose of this article, having identified that, by its nature, the work system that corresponds to each of them is of autonomous type, associative-self-management and associative-self-management-solidarity, respectively.

The COVID-19 pandemic poses problems in various sectors. The most vulnerable sector in this situation is the social sector, especially education. Problems such as the learning process make the continuity of education a concern. This is a challenge for the community in the era of society 5.0 in the hope of overcoming the problems that arise due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The use of big data, artificial intelligence, and the internet of things is an alternative effort to help deal with the impact of the pandemic in accordance with the conditions in this disruptive era. This study aims to determine the policies and strategies of society 5.0 in the learning process as an effort to handle the impact of the pandemic. This study uses a systematic review research method of literature published by scientific journals in the period January 2010 to December 2021. The data used comes from published journals related to the topics studied and from various electronic media.

Problematic Situations

Current changes in society, in particular globalization, demographic trends, and changes in the labour market, have far-reaching implications for how we live and work together. Common social problems, for instance, are becoming more complex and new problematic situations continually arise. With cuts in the social sector and increasing demands for efficiency and effectiveness, overall conditions are becoming worse. Faced with these developments, social security systems are increasingly pushed to the limit and are forced to redefine their areas of responsibility. In addition, we must take account the issue of crowding-out processes in the social sphere. Large, mostly internationally operating enterprises for example are increasingly receiving performance contracts from governments in the areas of elderly care or immigrant services. It is also apparent that social service organizations are overloaded and that their established structures and historically evolved market positions are eroding. In the current discussion, we have to find answers to at least two questions within the context of developing organizations:1.             How should we build organizations so that they are able to withstand or handle these challenges?2.             How can we define the role of leadership in these organizations?First, we will discuss the concept of responsibility. We will then describe the different challenges that organizations face, particularly in the social sector. Based on Frederic Laloux’s (2014) model of “Evolutionary Organizations,” we will present a critical discussion of the possibilities for responsible leadership that are available to organizations in the social sector.

If assessment of the ability to work of TB patients of a certain profession encounters significant difficulties, it is even more difficult with regard to workers of agricultural labor in collective or state farms, where the extreme diversity of labor processes requires the expert doctor to know the conditions of those jobs that take place at a given time in addition to correctly determining the nature of the TB disease in the patient being examined.
