The Do-Gooder Jargon Finder
Tactical Philanthropy pointed this out recently, and it's a must for anyone in the nonprofit/social enterprise world: The Jargon Finder over at the Communications Network.
One of the ironies of the push for more effective philanthropy is that it uses such ineffective language to promote the cause. The words function well enough as means of status signaling, establishing that a person is associated with others in the movement. However, they communicate far less useful information that their proponents tend to think, confusing a shift in terms with actual progress in analysis & strategy.
As I noted in my recent Chronicle of Philanthropy op-ed, social enterprise is all too often just the Dilbertization of charity--businesslike to be sure, but not in a good way.
