This rich and detailed book makes a very timely contribution to
extending our understanding of entrepreneurship in its social
context. Using selected examples, the respected contributors show
how the values developed in religious beliefs and practices shape
entrepreneurship. For too long the entrepreneur has been
characterized as an isolated, economically driven individual, thus
ignoring how enterprise and entrepreneurs are products of their
society, their culture and their religion. This innovative book
discusses both entrepreneurship and religion, as well as indicating
how the synthesis of beliefs and practices combine in
entrepreneurial endeavours. It provides a conceptually useful way
of framing the individualistic entrepreneur in his or her social
and cultural context, demonstrating how entrepreneurial agency
operates within and through a variety of religious contexts.
Illustrated with original photographs, this captivating book will
be warmly welcomed by students and researchers with interests in
entrepreneurship, sociology, religion and cultural studies.
Government policy-makers in immigration will also find this book an
invaluable read.
