First sentence: For some time now there has been a growing interest in the social economy, largely understood as a non-profit or third sector distinct from both the public (statutory) and the private (business) sectors of the economy and comprising, amongst other things, co-operative businesses, campaigning and social movement organizations, mutual aid societies and non-profit, voluntarily-managed associations and groups (Cornforth and Hooker, 1989; Paton, 1991; Taylor 1986; Thomas and Thomas, 1989).
