Abstract
Framed by market shaping theories, this thesis increases understanding of the social impact investment market by examining how it shapes and is shaped by social innovation. The empirical setting is an embedded case study of social impact bonds in the Australian social impact investment market, and the research methods take a constructionist, relational approach to the study of markets. Taken together, the resulting three research papers advance knowledge of how social innovation and economic markets are bridged.
