About the Book

The contextual turn in the field of entrepreneurship means it is crucial for scholars to integrate into their research the multifaceted contexts in which entrepreneurship is embedded. This insightful book explores the different spatial, social, digital, institutional and policy contexts for entrepreneurship and investigates their relevance for entrepreneurship theory and practice. Featuring cutting-edge research, Contextual Embeddedness of Entrepreneurship presents a wide range of theoretical approaches undertaken to study entrepreneurial behaviour and processes, analysing their relevance to policy and practice. Chapters examine these approaches through the lens of specific issues and circumstances related to digital, edtech, social, international and peripheral entrepreneurship, exploring diverse perspectives and illustrating how different contexts shape entrepreneurial activity and its outcomes. The book ultimately demonstrates how changing environmental conditions for entrepreneurship – including crises, societal challenges and increasing digitalisation – can open up new avenues for research into the embeddedness of entrepreneurship. Illustrating the continuous evolution of studies in entrepreneurship, this discerning book will stimulate the research of students and scholars of business and management. Its up-to-date empirical approaches and practical insights will also benefit entrepreneurship researchers and practitioners.

Review :
‘The significance of context and embeddedness, and their intersections, are central concepts to our understanding of entrepreneurial behaviour and how this varies between multiple locations and over time. This edited book presents groundbreaking, empirical research from leading authors that addresses the role of place and institutional and digital embeddedness. The chapters offer detailed research, marshalling a variety of evidence to make links between what goes on inside the enterprise and the contexts in which they are situated. Collectively, the book illuminates the ways in which different levels of context and embeddedness shape entrepreneurial processes and, in doing so, makes a significant contribution to our knowledge and theorising on entrepreneurship.’ ‘This is a wonderful book on how entrepreneurship is embedded in and across different contexts. The editors have assembled a great group of contributors who explore the multiple facets of contextual embeddedness, highlighting the role of places, institutions and digitization. The breadth of topics together with the manifold methodologies applied are an extra benefit of the anthology. Recommended reading for students of entrepreneurship!’
