| Summary: | This book explores the concept of social businesses, which are enterprises aimed at providing social benefits rather than maximizing profits for owners. It differentiates between two types of social businesses: those organized to address social issues and those in marginalized communities using profits for family welfare to escape poverty. The authors, Alejandro Mungaray Lagarda, Germán Osorio Novela, and Natanael Ramírez Angulo, aim to educate a general audience, including economic scholars and policymakers, on the potential of businesses to prioritize social welfare over profit maximization. Drawing on the ideas of Muhammad Yunus, the book argues for a paradigm shift where businesses can coexist as profit-driven and social welfare-maximizing entities, contributing to societal well-being and sustainable development.
