Eva Tichauer was born in Berlin at the end of the First World War
into a socialist Jewish family. After a happy childhood in a
well-off intellectual milieu, the destiny of her family was turned
upside-down by the rise of Hitler in 1933. They emigrated to Paris
in July of that year, and life started to become difficult. Eva was
in her second year of medical studies in 1939 when war was
declared, with fatal consequences for her and her family: they sere
forced to the Spanish frontier, then returned to Paris to a flat
which had been searched by the Gestapo. Eva was then compelled to
break off her studies due to a quota system being imposed on Jewish
students.
This Research Handbook highlights the importance of women as agents
of change, acknowledging women entrepreneurs’ efforts and
supporting their value-creation activities. With important
implications for policymaking, contributing authors direct
attention to and provide evidence for the positive contribution of
women entrepreneurs to the economy, regardless of their
businesses’ size and formal status. Challenging the
underperformance hypothesis associated with women entrepreneurs,
chapters present evidence that women do not underperform in their
businesses, but that they add value even in constrained
environments. This intends to shift the focus of research from
questions like ‘what do entrepreneurs do?’ to ‘how do they do
it?’, focusing on the unique ways in which each woman
entrepreneur creates value, and ‘for whom do they do it?’,
looking at the multiple value outcomes women entrepreneurs create
and the beneficiaries of that value. With a global perspective on
women’s entrepreneurship and their value creation, this Research
Handbook will be vital reading for researchers of entrepreneurship,
as well as government agencies and policymakers interested in
promoting entrepreneurial activity.

Bringing together scholars from around the world, this book
provides extensive coverage of the academic literature and research
on women's entrepreneurship policy. Featuring contributions from
members of the Global Women's Entrepreneurship Policy Research
Network, the book explores and critiques contemporary policy
instruments while also pointing toward potential policy solutions.
Chapters aim to deepen understanding of women's entrepreneurship
policy and raise awareness among policy makers, programme managers
and academics of the dangers associated with gender-blind
entrepreneurship policies. The book concludes that 'one size fits
all' policies that ignore the gender dimension do not support women
entrepreneurs effectively. Research-based and international in
approach, Women's Entrepreneurship Policy will be a useful guide
for academics and advanced students in the areas of
entrepreneurship, gender and management, diversity and management,
and international business. It will also be beneficial for policy
makers and those involved in designing and delivering women's
entrepreneurship programmes.

'A must read for all entrepreneurship scholars because it helps us
to understand and appreciate the real and many roles of women
entrepreneurs, their relevance and importance to societies across
the World, as well as the challenges and issues women entrepreneurs
can face. An exciting and interesting read which presents us with
critical questions for the future - thank you.' - Sarah Jack,
Lancaster University Management School, UK Taking a fresh look at
how performance is defined by examining the institutional power
structures and policies, eminent scholars herein explore ways to
overcome constrained performance and encourage women?s
entrepreneurial activities through a variety of methodological
approaches and geographical contexts. Significantly, this book adds
a critical perspective to defining ?success? and ?performance?,
shattering misconceptions of underperformance in women-owned
enterprises. The contributing authors raise questions on the
limiting concept of the ?entrepreneur? and have valuable insights
into policies to facilitate female entrepreneurs. Instead of taking
a one-sided and narrow approach with regards to understanding the
entrepreneurship performance phenomenon, this book argues that
future researchers should take a fresh look at business
performance, considering structural constraints, definitions of
success and other socio-political factors. Scholars in the fields
of entrepreneurship, gender studies, and institutional theory, as
well as those who have a general interest in critical research,
will benefit from this progressive step in entrepreneurship
research. Contributors include: R. Aidis, A. Akdeniz, H. Baiya, M.
