Abstract:	"By taking into consideration the indispensability of network formation and of entrepreneur's organizing work in advance of provision stage, we examine the efficacy of financing a global public good on a local scale by means of a 'selective incentive-cum-global public good' scheme. It is derived that when a network of star type must be formed by entrepreneur's initiative, an organizational form of not-for-profit, run by social entrepreneur, is more reconcilable with the social objective of providing the global public good than that of for-profit run by business entrepreneur."
