Through a literature review of economic development strategies and unintended negative consequences, including social entrepreneurship projects, this chapter on “Displacement: A Typology to Inform Social Entrepreneurs” categorizes and explains displacement induced by development projects. The typology can help to inform social entrepreneurs regarding the resulting harms of displacement dynamics. This knowledge can guide social entrepreneurs, compelling them to prevent displacement-induced harms by being attentive during the planning and implementation phases of projects. The harms in the proposed typology include those involving displacement of loci or place; community or social capital; resources, including natural resources; and financial systems. The typology defines each type of displacement, drawing on a case study, and further illuminates the effects of each type on communities. Recommendations are offered that address ways to prevent and interrupt displacements during social entrepreneurship projects while promoting more inclusive, participatory, locally sustainable development. In addition, this chapter focuses on the importance of informal networks and economic sectors.

Purpose This paper studies how accounting information is used by actors in an innovation process. It investigates how accounting information influences and is influenced by the different actors. The purpose of this paper is to develop a more thorough understanding of the role of accounting in making the choices that form temporary solutions. Design/methodology/approach An in-depth case study of the development of a standard software release within the telecom industry. Findings This study has shown that accounting was a key ingredient when temporary solutions were formed in the innovation processes. Actors used accounting to stabilize the content of the release in the formation of the gate documents and used accounting to destabilize the content between the temporary solutions. It is difficult to evaluate whether the use of accounting improved or harmed the innovation. Further, the study also revealed that the use of accounting influenced and was influenced by previous and prospective future deals. This put new challenges on the use of accounting because it involved negotiation processes that influenced the accounting figures. Practical implications The findings provide insights into the procedures for finding temporary solutions in the innovation process and the role of accounting in these procedures. Originality/value This paper contributes by providing a more thorough understanding of the role of accounting regarding the choices that comprise the temporary solutions within the innovation process. In addition, it shows how accounting has a critical role both for settling on and modifying temporary solutions. Hence, the research demonstrated how studies of the role of accounting in innovation processes can contribute to the industrial network approach by giving a more thorough understanding of network dynamics and the process of attaining stability and instability in business networks.

Abstract Given the profound changes of the financial systems as a result of the technological innovation, the economic liberalization and globalization in the recent decades, and the economic crisis, achieving financial stability is a necessity for the modern economies. In the national economies, ensuring financial stability is a priority for the central banks and the other regulating and supervising authorities. These issues, and others, are the main objectives of our research, and, by referring to the Romanian experience in terms of financial stability, through the conducted research, we intend to contribute to the systematization and the development of knowledge in this area.

AbstractUsing interviews with former militants and previously unpublished documents, this article traces the genesis and internal dynamics of the Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo (People's Revolutionary Army, ERP) in El Salvador during the early years of its existence (1970–6). This period was marked by the inability of the ERP to maintain internal coherence or any consensus on revolutionary strategy, which led to a series of splits and internal fights over control of the organisation. The evidence marshalled in this case study sheds new light on the origins of the armed Salvadorean Left and thus contributes to a wider understanding of the processes of formation and internal dynamics of armed left-wing groups that emerged from the 1960s onwards in Latin America.
