Political Entrepreneurship explores the role of political
entrepreneurs in regional growth and entrepreneurial diversity. The
authors define a political entrepreneur as a politician, bureaucrat
or officer within the publicly funded sector who encourages
entrepreneurship for growth and employment using innovative
approaches. This book aims to enrich the established research on
entrepreneurship with in-depth knowledge of the conditions
conducive for political entrepreneurship in Sweden. Political
entrepreneurs have the potential to be innovative and encourage
entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial diversity by fundamentally
challenging the prevailing formal and informal institutions. It is
argued that, in times of economic stress, political
entrepreneurship is essential to find new ways of promoting growth,
employment and welfare. By using social science and economics
perspectives, this study complements the dominant business
administration research on entrepreneurship by increasing our
knowledge of the economic and political contexts in which
entrepreneurship and private enterprise is conducted. This book is
essential reading for students, researchers and policymakers
interested in politics, economics and entrepreneurship, as well as
for those working in the public sector. Contributors include: D.E.
