Abstract

This chapter lays the foundations for a comprehensive analysis of entrepreneurship. What we know so far is that entrepreneurship has bright and dark sides (although some concepts have become milestones, there is not always total agreement on all their aspects). To shed some light and try to advance entrepreneurship studies, the aim of this chapter is threefold. Firstly, it aims to corroborate the idea that entrepreneurship is a process made up of several and different phases. Accordingly, a processual perspective is evoked. Secondly, it intends to select an appropriate approach to investigate it. This is expected to fit with the idea of entrepreneurship as a process. The choice is among a single, multidisciplinary, or interdisciplinary approach. Lastly, it strives for revealing and investigating some critical issues that emerge when entrepreneurship processes are implemented and conducted. The origin of entrepreneurship, the purpose to achieve, the way decisions are made, the implementation and management of entrepreneurial networks, and the way entrepreneurial ecosystems should work are well-known and largely investigated topics, but—at the same time—they reveal some critical issues that scholars have not solved in a proper way yet. For this reason, they are questioned, revised, and rebuilt by relaying on new sciences, disciplines, or fields of knowledge that may offer new lenses and—hopefully—be useful to solve some criticalities as well as advance entrepreneurship studies.
