The classic and dominant paradigm of entrepreneurship emphasizes
the relatively universal and homogeneous responses of a small, but
influential, minority as they make unique and breakthrough
contributions. Entrepreneurs are often viewed as inspired
individualists who possess the courage to "go against the grain" as
they risk it all to pursue an impassioned vision. According to
Joseph Schumpeter and those who build upon his seminal
perspectives, such entrepreneurial individuals pursue a path of
"creative destruction" that paves the way towards true and
innovative progress. Today, state of the art research is tempering
and transcending this classic vision by acknowledging a wider array
of cultural, psychological, and environmental contexts, influences,
and responses. This monograph contributes to this research stream
by viewing entrepreneurs within a cultural perspective and
advocating viewing entrepreneurship in "culturally competent" ways.
Presenting these perspectives in a short and circumscribed volume
provides an elegant and influential means of disseminating these
important perspectives. Entrepreneurship and Culture expands beyond
popular and conventional views of entrepreneurship and provides
readers with alternative perspectives in even-handed ways. It shows
the latest state of knowledge on the topic and will be of value
both to advanced students, and to academics and practitioners in
the fields of entrepreneurship, international business, leadership
and organizational studies. Beyond the business school, this book
will also be of interest to anthropology, economic development, and
indigenous studies scholars.
