Political Entrepreneurship explores the role of political entrepreneurs in regional growth and entrepreneurial diversity. The authors define a political entrepreneur as a politician, bureaucrat or officer within the publicly funded sector who encourages entrepreneurship for growth and employment using innovative approaches. This book aims to enrich the established research on entrepreneurship with in-depth knowledge of the conditions conducive for political entrepreneurship in Sweden.Political entrepreneurs have the potential to be innovative and encourage entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial diversity by fundamentally challenging the prevailing formal and informal institutions. It is argued that, in times of economic stress, political entrepreneurship is essential to find new ways of promoting growth, employment and welfare. By using social science and economics perspectives, this study complements the dominant business administration research on entrepreneurship by increasing our knowledge of the economic and political contexts in which entrepreneurship and private enterprise is conducted. This book is essential reading for students, researchers and policymakers interested in politics, economics and entrepreneurship, as well as for those working in the public sector.

'Policymakers, researchers and society at large struggle with ways in which policy can support entrepreneurship and business. There is a clear need for new and innovative policy tools. This collection of high-quality contributions puts political entrepreneurship at center stage, and illuminates the role the political entrepreneur could play in creating new and improved ways to develop and implement public support for entrepreneurship. The arguments are sound, and are presented and organized in a coherent way. The book is a pleasure to read and provides important insights.' -- Martin Andersson, Blekinge Institute of Technology, Research Institute of Industrial Economics and Lund University, Sweden
