Reviews
"From social enterprises to socially responsible investors, Caring Capitalism illuminates the divergent ways both nonprofits and for-profits are using market-based approaches to determine what is purportedly of social value. Rather than convergence on a new standard, Emily Barman finds that social value is polysemic, with elastic meanings that frequently produce surprising goals and ambitions. Barman provides an invaluable service in showing how a new cast of organizations are remaking the meaning of the social good." Walter W. Powell, Stanford University, California, "In this illuminating book, Emily Barman argues that the proliferation of 'caring capitalism' - efforts by corporations to make the world a better place as well as to make a profit - has redefined the meaning of social value. Barman shows how value entrepreneurs, by creating new ways to measure and implement social value, play a key role in determining how organizations balance the crosscutting demands of the profit industry and the desire to do social good, pushing us to think in a more nuanced way about the confluence of market and mission."

Synopsis
This study is aimed at scholars and students interested in caring capitalism and those with a scholarly concern for valuation or a pragmatic attention to performance measurement. The book could be assigned in university courses on economic sociology, political sociology, globalization, and courses on international development and sustainability., Companies are increasingly championed for their capacity to solve social problems. Yet what happens when such goods as water, education, and health are sold by companies - rather than donated by nonprofits - to the disadvantaged and when the pursuit of mission becomes entangled with the pursuit of profit? In Caring Capitalism, Emily Barman answers these important questions, showing how the meaning of social value in an era of caring capitalism gets mediated by the work of 'value entrepreneurs' and the tools they create to gauge companies' social impact. By shedding light on these pivotal actors and the cultural and material contexts in which they operate, Caring Capitalism accounts for the unexpected consequences of this new vision of the market for the pursuit of social value. Proponents and critics of caring capitalism alike will find the book essential reading.

    The seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!

    Leaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration

    My statue was exactly as described, it was un-opened and in perfect condition! Totally wirth the price. Getting it shipped took a little long but the seller was very responsive when I messaged and sent me the tracking as soon as it was available. Plus they did a good job packaging it well enough that despite being banged up on the outside my item was completely undamaged.
