The Evolution of Entrepreneurship as a Scholarly Field  (English, Paperback, Landstroem Hans)

The Evolution of Entrepreneurship as a Scholarly Field examines the development of entrepreneurship as a research field by describing the modern history of entrepreneurship as a scholarly field since World War II and synthesizing the development of the field in terms of the institutionalization of entrepreneurship in the academic system. This monograph takes a broader perspective, not only focusing on the intellectual development of the field but also elaborating on the social aspects of the development of entrepreneurship research. Finally, the main conclusion is that over time, entrepreneurship research has gained academic legitimacy and become more institutionalized in the academic system.
