BARGSTED A., Mariana. Social Entrepreneurship from a Psychosocial look. Civilizar [online]. 2013, vol.13, n.25, pp.121-132. ISSN 1657-8953.

This article is a theoretical review of social entrepreneurship, defined as any business initiative, with or nonprofit, whose primary objective is to generate social value. This is a recent and attractive field of research which progressively makes information gathering, although little of it is empirical. The aim of this review is to identify, relevant research questions from social psychology about social entrepreneurship. From the study of various investigations, possible psychosocial variables are identified, which are required for this type of entrepreneurship, such as individual characteristics, social reasons and a specific work identity. In addition, some looks on society, on the goals of organizations and on psychosocial aspects of organizational behavior are incorporated.

Palavras-chave : Social entrepreneurship; social motives; career identity.
