“…Democratic decision-making might also be a source of tension. First, while not every member of an SE is actively engaged in managing its operations (“It’s difficult to convene a general meeting as this has ten members, and [difficult] to make decisions, as [participants] actually have no idea what’s going on here” [4]), in many cases – particularly in the case of SCs – every member has voting rights of equal weight (Szemán, 2017) (“So when we have to make a decision on whether there will be dividends at the end of the year or not, or we generated a profit, let’s say two million forints [approx. 5,200 EUR] and [when deciding] what we should do[…] It’s really difficult, and we have very serious debates” [2]).…”

Purpose The aim of this paper is twofold. The main objective is to contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the tensions that characterize social enterprises because of their dual (economic and social) commitments in a Hungarian context. Design/methodology/approach The research was exploratory, as no structured inquiry has been carried out in a Hungarian context concerning the sources of tension social enterprises encounter because of their dual commitments. Therefore, a qualitative approach was chosen to achieve the exploratory goal. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were carried out with one expert and nine social entrepreneurs to map and understand these tensions in a Hungarian context. Findings The research provides a comprehensive three-level model of tensions in which concrete (observable) tensions are grouped into 4 main groups of tensions and 15 subgroups. Originality/value This study is original in two ways. First, besides the numerous tensions other researchers have already observed, this study revealed some that have not been empirically observed. Second, being the first research on tensions in a Hungarian context, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, the results increase understanding of social entrepreneurship in a Hungarian context based on the lived experiences of Hungarian social entrepreneurs.

The social cooperatives have a very important function in a peripheral area, they can create jobs for unemployed or disabled people in order to solve the unemployment problem in this area. Of course they can create with the necessary flexibility and innovation skills for rural areas and help to maintain the social peace to provide work with the less competitive part of the rural population (Bartha & Bereczk, 2018). However, the management of this enterprises faces several dilemmas how can build up an effective control system of a social enterprises in Central-Europe. Our research group has a long-term research project to help the social cooperative management in the daily operation based on a well-suited Balanced Scorecard Model to the specific needs of these organisation. A questionnaire survey has been made asking the social cooperative managers about the administration and management problems of their enterprises. According to our survey, the major problem of social cooperative is the quality of available labour force. So, the Human Resource management and how its tools can be effectively adapted to the social cooperatives has got a vital importance. The future aim of our research program is to develop a report system and a ratio analysis tool to help the work of social cooperative managers.
