Tilburg University explores the often-overlooked political dimension of social enterprises, particularly their advocacy activities aimed at influencing public policy, legislation, norms, attitudes, and behavior. Analyzing original survey data from 718 social enterprises across seven countries, their study reveals that public spending and competition in social enterprises’ problem domains, as well as their governance choices, are significantly associated with advocacy activities. They propose a new theoretical framework to understand these dynamics, positioning social enterprises as key players in markets for public purpose. <a
