Social entrepreneurship is a specific type of entrepreneurial activity embedded in multiple institutional logic.The success of social entrepreneurship depends on entrepreneurs'ability to effectively utilize and integrate the mutually competing institutional logic,namely the social welfare logic,business logic,and public sector logic.This article proposes a fundamental framework for social entrepreneurship education from the perspective of multiple institutional logic.It argues that effective social entrepreneurship education should not only teach students general and specialized knowledge required for social entrepreneurship but also cultivate their skills in linking and integrating multiple logic.Through cognitive,practical,and creative processes,the educational goals are achieved,enabling students to experience and apply relevant logic in specific situations and gradually internalize them,thereby further achieving creative integration and application in social entrepreneurship practice.
