This volume considers the timely issues of social and sustainable
entrepreneurship. The chapters consider in depth the issues,
problems, contexts, and processes that make entrepreneurial
enterprises more social and/or sustainable. Top researchers from a
diverse set of perspectives have contributed their latest research
on a variety of topics such as the role of entrepreneurial
bricolage in generating innovations in a social context (Gundry,
Kickul, Griffins, and Bacq) and emerging themes in social
entrepreneurship education (Thiru). Several chapters tackle
lingering definitional issues such as the distinctions between
social, sustainable, and environmental entrepreneurship (Dean,
Sarason, and Neenan), or propose social entrepreneurship research
agendas based on key research questions found in prior studies
(Gras, Mosakowski, and Lumpkin). There are brief histories of
social change and their entrepreneurial implications (Kucher and
Summers), and frameworks for studying different types of social and
sustainable entrepreneurship (Lichtenstein). Each of the chapters,
in its own way, addresses the progress and promise of social and
sustainable entrepreneurship as a future research domain of growing
interest and importance.
Volume 12 will consider the timely issue of entrepreneurship and
family business. Papers consider the issues, problems, contexts, or
processes that make a family firm more entrepreneurial. A
representative, but by no means exhaustive, listing of relevant
topics includes: the emergence and growth of family businesses, and
founding conditions unique to family firms; maintaining the
entrepreneurial spirit of the founding generation; the role of
family in corporate entrepreneurship; the use of entrepreneurial
policies, practices and strategies by family firms; outcomes
attributable to differences between more and less entrepreneurial
family firms; family firm versus non-family firm approaches to
entrepreneurial decision making; entrepreneurial characteristics
and practices across the generations of a family firm;
entrepreneurship as an avenue to strategically renew family firms;
and, the allocation of family-based resources to entrepreneurial
endeavors.
