Abstract

What is entrepreneurship research? Entrepreneurship as a research domain cannot be restricted to proven cases of entrepreneurship as defined in Chap. 1 . This is because in order to understand the societal phenomenon as defined in Chap. 1 , the research domain needs to understand also the choice not to engage in entrepreneurship and the reasons for failure to succeed at it. Combining ideas from prior literature, this chapter develops and discusses a delineation of the entrepreneurship research domain, focusing on the process of (completed or aborted) emergence of new economic ventures across organizational contexts.
