Challenging Dominant Discourses
Redaktion: Essers, Caroline; Verduyn, Karen; Tedmanson, Deirdre; Dey, Pascal

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Critical Perspectives on Entrepreneurship questions the accepted norms and dominant assumptions of entrepreneurship scholarship. It explores how entrepreneurship study tends to privilege certain forms of economic action, while implying other more collective forms of organization and exchange are somehow problematic. Deconstructing assumptions and providing space for alternative visions, this book engages openly with the contradictions, and tensions at the heart of entrepreneurship. It will be of interest to entrepreneurship researchers, advanced students and policy-makers as well as scholars of critical management studies.
