The Paradox of Knowledge-Intensive Entrepreneurship in Low-Tech Industries (eBook, PDF)

Evidence from Case Studies of the German Textile Industry

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents the first multidimensional investigation of KIE in the context of low-tech industries and gives insights in paradox conditions and specific mechanisms, using the example of the German textile industry. Therefore, the author solves conceptual inconsistencies and develops an alternative framework referring to systemic concepts of sectoral innovation systems and KIE as well as to the concept of institutional entrepreneurs. As a result, the deviation of willful actors from a restricting institutional environment and sources of entrepreneurial opportunities can be investigated more comprehensively.
