Beskrivning
Mainstream entrepreneurship theory and research is weak on the experiences of minority entrepreneurs, and this book fills that gap, presenting evidence-based primary research from Australia to argue that the dynamics of minority entrepreneurship have implications for mainstream or majority entrepreneurship theory and policy.The book provides a brief overview of the interdisciplinary theoretical foundations for minority entrepreneurship research. The chapters then draw upon primary research with over 1000 minority entrepreneurs – immigrants, Indigenous peoples, refugees, Muslims, and people with a disability – in Australia to explore the paradox of why minority entrepreneurs who face the greatest barriers often have higher rates of entrepreneurship than non-minorities. While ethnic community resources are critical factors in the success of these ventures, the book also highlights evidence of co-ethnic exploitation.Rich with primary evidence, this book opens up a rich field of research, entrepreneurial experience as well as policy insights for academics and scholars of small business management, strategic management, and ethnic studies.
