Abstract:
|
The field of strategic entrepreneurship is a fairly recent one. Its central idea is that
opportunity-seeking and advantage-seeking—the former the central subject of the
entrepreneurship field, the latter the central subject of the strategic management field—
are processes that need to be considered jointly. The purpose of this brief chapter is to
explain the emergence of SE theory field in terms of a response to research gaps in the
neighboring fields of entrepreneurship and strategic management; describe the main
tenets of SE theory; discuss its relations to neighboring fields; and finally describe some
research gaps in extant theory, mainly focusing on the need to provide clear microfoundations
for SE theory and link it to organizational design theory. |
