Produktbeschreibung
This study explores how semantic and moral rules of
rural cultures and intrinsic power relations in
rural politics constrain the institutionalisation of
entrepreneurial ethos and rational calculations in
rural economies. It addresses three interrelated
research questions: (1)What calculative practices
prevail in the rural economy, and how do such
practices interplay with rural culture and politics?
(2) What psychological meanings and moral
factors influence entrepreneurial rationality in
rural communities, and how do these influences come
about?, (3) What inequalities and power
relations constrain rural entrepreneurship, and how
do these constraints operate?, and Based on
ethnographic narratives and stories gathered from
two villages in Sri Lanka, it has found that
entrepreneurial development and underlying
calculative practices in rural contexts are subject
to particular psychological meanings, moral factors,
inequalities and power relations.
