Entrepreneurship and Growth: An International Historical Perspective (in English)
Gabriel Tortella; Gloria Quiroga
Synopsis "Entrepreneurship and Growth: An International Historical Perspective (in English)"
A collection of eight articles by 17 specialists, this volume provides up-to-date research on the factors which contribute to the build up of entrepreneurship. It offers an international, comparative and historical perspective, with a special focus upon Mediterranean countries such as Spain, Italy and Greece. The authors take a quantitative approach in their exploration of these, as well as many other countries including England, Scotland and Argentina.Whilst several chapters explore entrepreneurial success as their main dependent variable and study the factors that explain it, others deal with a variety of topics such as education, innovation, immigration, kinship links, the role of investment, geographical factors, and macroeconomic variables. An Introduction and a brief chapter of conclusions provide the reader with a general theoretical background, a comparative perspective linking the methods and topics covered by the chapters, and an essay on the main conclusions to be drawn from the essays and the work as a whole.
