A shifting of the traditional model of the welfare state in the direction of a welfare society is taking place. An important aspect, there- fore, is the socialisation and enlargement of the range of shared responsibility of particular individuals, their families and the local community, to ensure dignified living conditions and social cohesion. The cooperation of representatives from the various sectors of social and economic life, defined as cross-sectoral partnership, is becoming more and more popular. The initiators of such partnerships are public institutions, NGOs, and businesses that operate at the local, regional, as well as national levels. J. Wygnański emphasised that: The principle of partnership has, from the axiological and political aspect, another much more crucial (and specifical- ly European) root, namely the principle of subsidiarity. This principle has a long-standing European tradition. (...) The principle of subsidiarity denotes the specific “division of labour” between particular communities. It means, that whenever a smaller (more local or generally speaking, grassroots) community is capable of solving a given problem, the community (institution) located “higher” in the hierarchy can and should support that community in its efforts, but it should not, through its own actions, encroach on its territory and thereby (at least indirectly) incapacitate its citizens (Wygnański 2012: 9). Activating cooperation of the greatest number of diverse entities possible creates an opportunity for the permanent realisation of certain public purposes, among which social integration should be primarily mentioned. The international debate on the topic of cross-sectoral partnerships in terms of solving social problems, allowed for the preparation of a mono- graph, containing the results of research, analysis, and proposals posed by researchers representing several countries: the Czech Republic and Slovakia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, as well as Poland. Šarka Ulčáková joined the discussion concerning understanding the concept of social entrepreneurship in the context of its development in Euro- pean countries within the past few decades. Beata Szluz has addressed the topic of partnership for combating social exclusion, using the example of social cooperatives operating in the Subcarpathian Voivodeship, which are 10 Introduction a specific form of social enterprise. Working in a cooperative creates an opportunity for social integration and raising the professional skills of indi- viduals at risk of social exclusion due to unemployment, disability or mental illness, those having problems finding a job, as well as social integration. Katarzyna Błaszczuk revealed good practices which oppose exclusion through the example of entities engaged in social economy activities in the Subcarpathian Voivodeship. Next, Piotr Frączek and Sylwia Drozd presen- ted the operation of the Centre for Social Integration in Sanok (Subcarpa- thian Voivodeship), as an example of initiatives aimed at social reintegration. Ester Denihelková noted that the priority of the social economy is the employment of individuals who are socially excluded or those at risk of social exclusion. Chronic unemployment and the need to reduce the national budget deficit are factors that cause difficulties in the fields of social policy and social work. She posed the question, to what extent can the social economy help to solve these problems? The aim of her the article is to present the current state of
