| Summary |
"When re-imagining, re-thinking, and re-writing entrepreneurship in this book, the authors have come to the conclusion that the concept that describes it most precisely is one that signifies a process that includes imagining, seductively describing, playfully organizing, political agility in navigating common sense, and business sensibility before possible commerce. This book develops a process theory of entrepreneurship by exploring how key concepts in such a theory - affect, desire, assemblage - allow us to think about entrepreneurship differently. This makes a significant contribution to bridging the fields of entrepreneurship and organization studies. Using literature and literary characters and their stories as main sources, entrepreneurship research is here revitalized, and the result provides students of entrepreneurship processes with new conceptual opportunities. The book is also a contribution to a multidisciplinary research tradition in social sciences more broadly where humanities is a key 'conversation partner'. Students in advanced studies in entrepreneurship, PhD students and entrepreneurship and organization scholars will find this to be a refreshing renewal of research into entrepreneurship and the creation of organization"-- Provided by publisher. |
