Economic inequality continues to contribute to political and social instability around the world. This instability stifles development and results in widening the wealth gap between the haves and have nots, further eroding stability. It has been argued that entrepreneurship is a prime contributor to this vicious cycle. Using Entrepreneurship and Social Innovation to Mitigate Wealth Inequality contends that this is only true when the opportunity for entrepreneurship is limited to a few. The authors maintain that when entrepreneurship is open to anyone who is properly motivated, innovative, and has a goal of growth for their enterprise, it helps build wealth for a greater number of people. The concept of social entrepreneurship is introduced, where entrepreneurship becomes a vehicle for explicitly addressing community-based economic and social challenges using markets.
