Comparative Entrepreneurship

The Uk, Japan, and the Shadow of Silicon Valley

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Are entrepreneurs essentially the same everywhere? Are the processes of entrepreneurship similar? Or are they shaped by their environments? If so, how? This study brings insights from entrepreneurship to comparative institutions and varieties of capitalism, and vice versa, and draws on two surveys and 25 case interviews in both the UK and Japan.
