On Wednesday, June 26, 2013, starting at 6:30 PM, Philip Barton, the Deputy Head of Mission of the British Embassy in Washington, DC, will host at his residence in Washington, DC, a private book launch of Social Entrepreneurship in the Age of Atrocities. The event will feature a book talk by Dr. Zachary D. Kaufman, editor of the book and a Marshall Scholar, whose graduate work (Master’s and PhD in international relations) at the University of Oxford was sponsored by the UK government.
Back to News & EventsThis book makes an all too rare and important point: One of the distinguishing characteristics of social entrepreneurs is the way their actions and their example pave the way for peace. Kaufman gives us multiple examples here to demonstrate that the kind of empathetic leadership exhibited by these social entrepreneurs builds an alternative to conflict and contributes to the stability and security of societies.”
