Entrepreneurship: is it good enough to be social? John F. McVea and Michael J. Naughton Introduction • The term Social Entrepreneurship has experienced a huge growth in influence over that last decade. The literature proposes a number of advantages to social entrepreneurship as a frame of reference: • Promoting innovation within non-profits • Leveraging and focusing scarce philanthropic resources • Faster response to strategic challenges • Infusion of business skills to non-business world • Involvement of non government assets in social problems • Creation of hybrid (blurred) organizations between for profit and non profit worlds. It is widely observed that practice has outpaced theoretical development leading to little agreement on definitions or frameworks for social entrepreneurship. We believe that widespread and unchallenged acceptance of the term Social Entrepreneurship masks some dangers and has contributed to confusion in the field. We believe that if we apply some insights from Catholic Social Teaching to the issue of social entrepreneurship we can move beyond the false dichotomy of Entrepreneurship/ Social Entrepreneurship and identify three specific entrepreneurial strategies which support a more robust discussion of the nature of the work that is entrepreneurship. We believe that the field would benefit from spending less time discussing social entrepreneurship and more time discussion the nature of the good entrepreneur. • • • • • The dangers of naïve acceptance of Social Entrepreneurship • • • The rhetorical risk: • Narrow definition: if S.E. is simply used to rebrand non-profits then much of the value of the new activities, hybrid design, stimulation of new resources and innovation is lost. • Implied dichotomy: if “good” ventures are termed “social” it can imply that other forms of entrepreneurship are “asocial” or “anti social” • Boundarylessness: In contrast, if all business activities are deemed “social”, to some degree or other, then the term loses all meaning focus on the distinctive phenomenon that is S.E. Despite these risks we are more concerned with a risk beyond rhetoric; the risk of undermining the meaning of work, particularly from the perspective of Catholic Social Teaching. While this perspective is drawn from the Catholic tradition, accepting the content of CST does not require acceptance of Catholic faith (Guitan, 2009). The three goods of social entrepreneurship • We are concerned by the side-effects of a concentration thesis that suggests that the moral responsibilities of entrepreneurship can be concentrated in a subset of businesses called social enterprises, presumably leaving other enterprise to simply concentrate on serving themselves. • We are concerned by the impact such a concentration thesis could have on the conception of the meaning of work beyond the world of social enterprise. • We are concerned with how such an approach can focus attention solely on the altruistic contributions of entrepreneurial ventures as the sole measure of their contribution to the Common Good • Instead we propose that, rather than trying to determine the difference between entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship, it would be more productive to focus on the questions “What is Good Entrepreneurship? What action and activities define that goodness?” • We further propose that, by apply the perspective of Catholic Social Teaching, we can identify three specific strategies through which entrepreneurial ventures may contribute to the Common Good thus suggesting that good entrepreneurship requires a focus on: 1. Good Goods. The primary way an entrepreneurial venture can contribute to the Common Good is by bringing into existence new products and services which are inherently good and which enrich lives and minimize any unintended harms. This can include what we call the “entrepreneurship of the mundane”, that is, the manufacture of the nuts and bolts and basic necessities of life as well as the creation of life saving treatments. However, inclusion of good goods as a primary moral contribution of entrepreneurship must also require of the entrepreneur analysis of what goods are not good, and what aspects of even good goods should be redesigned or rethought in order to minimize unintended consequences. We find, in our discussions, that this is a much under appreciated dimension of the good of entrepreneurship. 2. Good Work. The second way an entrepreneurial venture can contribute to the Common Good is through the nature of the work that is carried out by the venture. This dimension has several aspects both internal and external to the entrepreneur: • The development of good character in the entrepreneur. This aspect of the good is derived from the subjective dimension of work, that is, just as how-we-work ends up changing the world, so working-on-the-world changes us. Most professionals spend the majority of their waking hours at work. As habits, character and wisdom are developed through experience and activity, for the entrepreneur, doing good work is an important opportunity to develop character. Society as a whole is better off for having good, successful entrepreneurial leaders who, through that calling, can become leaders of character. This dimension of the entrepreneurial good is widely unappreciated even by entrepreneurs themselves • Good relations with employees, customers and other stakeholders. Value creation and trade creates opportunities for the building of social relationships. The central question is “Are you in good relation with those with whom you create value?’ Do your employees have opportunity to develop as people? 3. Good Wealth. The third way the good entrepreneur can contribute to the Common Good is through the creation of good wealth. Good wealth requires a balance of reward for labor/ creativity with the provision of a living wage to all. Good wealth is often captured by individual action but has social strings attached. From the CST perspective the creation of good wealth implies a particular solidarity with the poor. One way to contribute to the common good is to donate altruistically to those in need. But even here, altruism is only one of a number of possible strategies. Good entrepreneurs may also contribute by donating their time or their particular skills. Indeed, since the donation of time and work often requires physical interaction with those in need, it often generates a solidarity of far greater integrity. Finally, it must be emphasized that altruism, for the entrepreneur, is always dependent, indeed subsequent to the creation of good wealth in the first place. Literature cited Alvord, Sarah, David L.

We propose that, if we confront rather than acquiesce to these dangers, we can use the perspective of Catholic Social Teaching to broaden the scope of entrepreneurial ventures that we study, to enrich the moral dimension of entrepreneurial strategy and to deepen the teaching of entrepreneurship as a whole. We recommend the following to move toward these contributions: • Incorporate social entrepreneurship into entrepreneurship in a way that enhances the three goods of entrepreneurship. Specifically we propose replacing the questions “What is social entrepreneurship?” with the questions “What does it mean to be a Good entrepreneur?” From this perspective we can then apply what we have called the three goods of entrepreneurship as a means of supplying critical challenge and inspiration to all forms of entrepreneurship such that the true moral dimension of this critical force in our lives comes into fruition. • Encourage research within the entrepreneurship discipline that addresses traditional social entrepreneurial issues such as micro lending, fair trade products, etc. • Develop bridge courses such as Theo/Cath 306 which help students understand and experience the meaning of the good entrepreneur as well as connect students to the spiritual and moral principles of a good entrepreneur. • Expose entrepreneurship students to so-called social entrepreneurs as well so-called conventional good entrepreneurs so they can see the spectrum of entrepreneurial activities. © File copyright Colin Purrington.

Role of International Social Work organizations We are in a global context where the social work profession  has got more organized through the establishment of  international organizations. Countries that are new to the  profession of social work would need support of the  international associations like IASSW. The International Association of Schools of Social Work  (IASSW) is an organization of more than five hundred  schools of social work, regional associations of social work  education and affiliate organizations working towards  strengthening social work education globally. The IASSW  along with its partner associations (IFSW and ICSW) was  established in 1928. It provides various forums for  interactions and capacity building on social work education  across countries and continents through bi-annual world  conferences; an online social dialogue magazine; funding  for international projects; capacity building of faculty; and  interactive social media sites (http://iassw-aiets.net). 03/18/2019

Part 1: Background This analysis is primarily an exploration of the uses for Joint Couplers in COSMOSMotion An explanation of Joint Couplers: Joint couplers allow the motion of a revolute, cylindrical, or translational joint to be coupled to the motion of another revolute, cylindrical or translational joint. The two coupled joints may be of the same or different types; for example, a revolute joint may be coupled to a translational joint. The coupled motion may also be of the same or different type. For example, the rotary motion of a revolute joint may be coupled to the rotary motion of a cylindrical joint, or the translational motion of a translational joint may be coupled to the rotary motion of a cylindrical joint. Coupler joints are used here to produce motion between objects of complex geometry where a simple mate will not suffice. In this case the objects are bevel gears

For instance, in the USA the Council on Social Work Education  (CSWE) is a nonprofit national association representing more than  2,500 individual members, as well as graduate and undergraduate  programs of professional social work education. Founded in 1952,  this partnership of educational and professional institutions, social  welfare agencies, and private citizens is recognized by the Council  for Higher Education Accreditation as the sole accrediting agency for  social work education in this country (http://www.cswe.org/).   The Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) accredits  professional social work courses on the basis of the Australian Social  Work Education and Accreditation Standards 2012 (ASWEAS)  (https://www.aasw.asn.au/careers-study/education-standardsaccreditation accessed on 07-06-2015).  AASW is a member of the  Asian Pacific Association of Social Work Education (APASWE).  03/18/2019

4) Hermitian (or self-adjoint) operators: As we’ll see, these operators play a special role in QM (e.g., they correspond to physical observables, and have the property that their eigenvalues are real.) We will discuss them in much more detail later. 5) Anti-hermitian: 6) Unitary operators: Key feature: Unitary operators preserve the inner product i.e., So if two vectors are orthogonal, their transforms remain orthogonal. In fact, different orthonormal bases are related via unitary transformations Intuitively, suppose you have an orthonormal set of vectors. A unitary operator is somewhat analogous to rotating the entire set of vectors without changing their lengths or inner product. This is especially relevant when we want to switch from one set of basis vectors to another, as we now describe.

Copyright Law in Higher Education  The Major Federal Statute governing copyrights is the Copyright Act of 1976: “ Initial ownership. Copyright in a work protected under this title [17 USCS Sects. 101 et seq.] vests initially in the author or authors of the work. The authors of a joint work are co-owners of copyright in the work” (Sec. 201(a)).  The Work for Hire Rule: “In the case of a work made for hire, the employer or other person for whom the work was prepared is considered the author for purposes of this title [17 USCS Sects. 101 et seq.], and, unless the parties have expressly agreed otherwise in a written instrument signed by them, owns all of the rights comprised in the copyright” (Sec. 201(b)).
