Epistemology empirical gap. Most of researches on social entrepreneurship
have addressed embryonic states. Short 2009 indicates that previous literatures of social entrepreneurs were more conceptual articles than empirical studies. Recent research still
examines new models of social enterprises Lumpkin et al, 2011; Sondhi and Tang, 2011; Diaz-Foncea and Marcuello, 2012; Cardon et al, 2012. According to Nicholls 2007, as
with most scholarship on social entrepreneurship to date, the academic limitations of an applied subject are clearly evident in some of the contributions theory is sometimes
poorly articulated and presented monologically; there are no major empirical studies used.
Axiology gap application: According to Bornstein 2007, the huge bottlenecks
of social enterprise were fragmented financial resources and lack of highly talented people. Hudon 2007 proposes right to credit as instrumental to economic development,
though some critics from Libertarian. Many scientific and political approaches doubt the sustainability of social enterprises due to their entrepreneurial nature and their autonomy
Borganza et al, 2010. EMES Research Network encompassed several unexplored dimension, such as creation process, social innovation, that lately have attracted research
attention in the area of entrepreneurial orientation. The concept of social enterprise varies from region to region, even in Asia Defourny and Kim, 2011.
