\nThis does not mean that the Polish society has no experience in the creation and dissemination of social innovation. Until recently, they have been recognized in Poland mainly as a part of the social entrepreneurship due to the high promotion and development of new forms of social economy at the beginning of the 21st century. However, the first publications focused on the social innovation have been already prepared in recent years. They use this term to refer to the processes of institutionalization and social changes, changes in commercial organizations in the context of the implementation of corporate social responsibility (CSR) solutions, and in reference to the dissemination and adaptation of best practices and social solutions from other countries.<\/em><\/p>\n
