The 20ties of the 21st century are characterized by the pandemic period of COVID-19. The fall of national economies, the fears of inhabitants regarding their health, and the unfavorable economic situation of big groups of inhabitants require functional measures. Implementing social economy principles in national economies is a tool to improve the economic situation of the marginalized groups of inhabitants without using social networks.

The 20-ties of the 21st century are dented by the COVID-19 period. The fall of the world economy, the frustrations of the inhabitants because of their health, and unclear state policies throughout continents require functional measures. The application of the principles of social economy enables creation of the working system of sustainable entrepreneurial activities with the help of state means, transforming small and middle-sized enterprises into a social economy. The knowledge on the system and organization structure of the social economy in the Slovak Republic enables dissemination and potential application in the international context in the current pandemic period characterized by COVID-19. The system of social economy is being defined by Slovak legal regulations and selected statistic indicators about the social economy subjects in the Slovak Republic. A part of it is also a structural classification of the organizational structure of the state administration of the social economy, classification of the kinds of social enterprises, as well as classification of the wider area of the social economy from the multiple points of view in the Slovak Republic.

This paper presents the complexity of the contemporary social economy system – its definitions, points of reference, role played in socio-economic development. Furthermore the paper presents a review of selected approaches to social economy, including definitional approaches, e.g. those specific to Anglo-Saxon and continental traditions. It discusses the context in which it emerged and developed as a phenomenon in the public policy and economic areas. It analyses the dynamics of social economy development in Poland, including institutional environment and selected mechanisms of public management. It stresses that top-down initiatives – including those of the central government and the EU institutions – are a key element in making the social economy dynamic in developing the forms of activity (in view of the weakness of endogenous factors). The central and local governments place social economy at the heart of their strategies in many public policies.

Abstract The exclusion of individuals from the labour market directly affects the economic situation of their households. The main objective of the social economy is to address this situation. With the development of the social economy, efforts to assess its effects are intensified. The ambition of the paper is to express the extent of social economy in terms of rurality of regions of the Slovak Republic, identify its actors, sectors, where its entities operate and to illustrate both direct and indirect effects of the social economy. Industrial production is the most attractive sector for Slovak social enterprises. A small proportion of social enterprises operate in information, communication services and education. The largest number of sheltered workshops and workplaces operates in wholesale and retail trade and services related to sales. Geographical distribution of the social economy entities in Slovak districts (LAU 1) showed dependence of social economy intensity on rurality. Impact of a social enterprise is strongest in the local territory. However, single social enterprise can bring wide regional, national and even supranational effects.

Abstract Background In the literature one can find studies on the legitimacy of the political system or institutions (organs) of power. There are no studies on legitimacy from the point of view of social economy entities. Social perception is a factor that influences the success of social economy entities. Research aims The author set out to adapt the conceptual (semantic) apparatus to the analysis of legitimacy in relation to institutions operating in the social economy sector. Methodology The article has a theoretical character and presents the importance of the concept of legitimacy in the environment of social entrepreneurship (conceptual paper). The thesis the author will try to prove is that legitimisation of social economy entities is an essential element of the functioning of the social sector. The analysis was made on the basis of Polish conditions. Findings The analysis of planes and factors shaping the legitimacy of social economy entities seems interesting. Summarising the results of the research, it can be seen that the category of legitimacy, combined with the acceptance and legal validation of the activities of individual entities, as well as the entire social economy system, can be useful.
