Year 2015, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 17 - 43, 01.06.2015

Abstract

Today, social innovation is an important proposition for responding social needs. However, there are a few studies on social innovation and there isn’t common theoretical framework when looking the relevant literature. In this study, a survey is prepared based on literature review and applied to the experts. With this approach, defining the related components and the factors affecting social innovation is the main objective of this study. According to the survey results, social entrepreneurship has the highest interaction with social innovation and “social expectations” is the most important factor influencing the generation of social innovations. In addition, the most important attribute that social innovations contain is defined as the development potential on social areas such as education, health, environment and economy. The most important role in the process of social innovation is stated to be taken by municipalities.

Sosyal Yenilik Üzerine Bir Alan Araştırması

Year 2015, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 17 - 43, 01.06.2015

Abstract

Günümüzde sosyal yenilik, toplumsal ihtiyaçların karşılanması için önemli bir konudur. Bununla birlikte ilgili literatüre bakıldığında sosyal yenilik üzerine yapılan çalışmaların kısıtlı olduğu ve bu konuda ortak bir kavramsal yapının oluşturulmadığı görülmektedir. Bu çalışma kapsamında, literatüre dayalı oluşturulan anket aracılığıyla kavrama ilişkin unsurların uzmanlar tarafından değerlendirilmesi yapılmıştır. Bu yaklaşımla sosyal yenilikle ilgili unsurların ve sosyal yeniliği etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi çalışmanın temel amacını oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, sosyal yeniliğin en fazla ilişkili olduğu kavramın sosyal girişimcilik olduğu, sosyal yeniliğin ortaya çıkışında en önemli faktörün ise sosyal beklentiler olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, eğitim, sağlık, çevre, ekonomi gibi sosyal alanlarda gelişme sağlama potansiyelinin sosyal yeniliklerin barındırması gereken en önemli unsur olduğuna işaret edilirken sosyal yenilik süreçlerindeki en önemli rolün ise belediyeler tarafından üstlenilmesi gerektiği tespit edilmiştir
