Social Enterprise in Spain: A Diversity of Roots and a Proposal of Models Dominique Gross
Millán Díaz-Fonceas, Coordinator Project Team
The debate about the concept of social enterprise is still open in Spain. This concept has grassroots in the social economy sector, but organisations with an Anglo- Saxon perspective also use this term with increasing frequency.
On the basis of the above analysis about the various sources of the concept of social enterprise in Spain, five major groups can be highlighted within the existing range of organisations and businesses that use this concept:
1. organisations coming from the social economy tradition;
2. organisations linked to social innovation and encouraged by platforms such as Ashoka;
3. transitional movements seeking new business models in different areas (e.g., common good economy, social movements);
4. traditional social movements and people wanting to go beyond the framework of the social economy;
5. opportunistic organisations searching for funding opportunities through the funding programmes of public and private institutions promoting social enterprises and social entrepreneurship.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

A brief history of the third sector
XIX Century: Increase in associations helping working-class. Especially in
Catalonia, where the Industrial Revolution is hitting deeply.
2nd Spanish Republic (1931-1939): Democratic Constitution. Introduces
Individual and political civil rights. Huge increase in the civil society
organisations, especially in educational, social, cultural and community areas.
Franco dictatorship (1939-1975): Democratic system abolished. No right of free
association. All the social/community activities have to be managed and
controlled by: the public administration, the Franco’s single party (Falange), the
official surrounding institutions (as official Union) or the Church.
During this period social welfare was provided above all by families, friends and
neighbours.

A brief history of the third sector
Transition and democratic regime (1976 – Currently):
1. Social services evolution
Policy makers wanted to design a social services public system without taking
the civil organisations into account, because they were seen as too amateur. The
policy makers wished to build a universal system.
As time went on:
- The control for social services switched from central government to regional
governments.
- The fiscal resources were not enough.
- Sometimes the public authorities sought to support the civil society
organisations to provide extra social welfare.
This meant that as times went on social services evolved in different ways
depending on the regional government. These policies directly affected the
evolution of the third sector.
