Social Entrepreneurship in the Age of Atrocities: Changing Our World

Flag as inappropriate | Edit

Social Entrepreneurship in the Age of Atrocities: Changing Our World, edited by Yale Club of Washington, D.C. Board Member Dr. Zachary D. Kaufman ’00 ’09JD, provides reflections on social entrepreneurship from visionaries, practitioners, and theorists. The contributors to this book—including a total of 11 Yale alums or faculty members (such as Yale Law School Professor Amy Chua and Ashoka founder and CEO Bill Drayton) — address the clear need for further examination of social entrepreneurship.  In addition, the book examines challenges, obstacles, and opportunities in the field and lends new insight to the phenomenon, history, and methodologies of social entrepreneurship. Dr. Kaufman is donating all of the royalties of this book to charity: half to the medical fund of his undergraduate classmate, Artemis Christodulou, and the other half to the profiled social enterprises that continue to operate.
