Entrepreneurship, as the creation of new organizations, has
globally become an appealing call for individuals and governments
alike. Too often still, it is simply associated with the idea of
'enterprise', thus sustaining a pervasive politics of homo
economicus agents living a 'measured life' in competition-based
individuality. Organizational Entrepreneurship, Politics and the
Political disconnects entrepreneurship from the politics of
enterprise to more fully explore its potential to resist the
economic and ethical demand of the enterprise to be instrumentally
innovative and instead to disrupt and disturb the established
order. As such, entrepreneurship is seen as inevitably political
– it is a constant attempt at declassifying existing structures
and institutions, de-normalizing practices and sensemaking to make
room for and initiate the new. The chapters invite the readers to
revisit key concepts in entrepreneurship studies – opportunity,
motivation, identity, experimentation, creative destruction and
experimentation – by approaching them through a political process
lens. This book offers a new conceptual repertoire and vocabulary
that reconnects entrepreneurship studies with the socio-political
dimensions of organization-creation, opening up multiple
possibilities for understanding and questioning the meanings and
effects of entrepreneurship in society. Combining philosophical
reflections with organizational and processual perspectives, this
book will be of interest to academics, students and researchers in
the areas of business, social and political entrepreneurship,
organization studies and management. The chapters in this book were
originally published as a special issue of the Entrepreneurship and
Regional Development.
