Entrepreneurship in emerging economies and developing countries
presents us with a unique set of working attitudes, modes of
thinking, social practices and processes. This book explores these
characteristics, focusing on the conceptualization of
entrepreneurship 'in-between'. It highlights top-down, bottom-up
and hybrid initiatives as well as driving forces for
entrepreneurial activities, presenting the diversity, nuances and
multiplicity of facets of relevant but unexplored contexts that we
need in order to expand our dominant and traditional understandings
of entrepreneurship. This book examines entrepreneurship as a
contextualized phenomenon from different theoretical and empirical
perspectives, gathering a group of researchers with different
nationalities, backgrounds and contexts to shed light on how
societies with alternative paths of development trigger different
entrepreneurial activities and practices. It covers geographical
contexts from four continents in a novel and multifaceted analysis.
Including case studies, literature reviews and discourse analysis,
this book will be a valuable resource for academics and PhD
students as well as programme directors in entrepreneurship,
development studies and economic geography, and policy makers
working with local and regional development and entrepreneurship.
