Sustainable Development & Entrepreneurs Growth
How do you understand the current state of the academic field of Entrepreneurship? It is possible to speak of creation theories?
The current field of study is characterized by an imbalance between an abundance of case studies of entrepreneurial activities on the one hand, and a lack of interpretative models, on the other. The analysis of entrepreneurship is still strongly based on theoretical constructs of the classics – Schumpeter in particular – and some more recent approaches to organization theory. However, there is the need to update it and develop it using one of the best concepts from sociological theory and social sciences in general, such as – just to name a few – immersion (embededdness), social capital, trust, and stakeholder sustainable development.
