- Synopsis
- The book investigates the intricate world of entrepreneurship, examining its dual nature as a force for constructive societal change as well as a potential source of destructive consequences. To examine these two facets in detail, the book scrutinizes the interplay between individual actions and institutional frameworks, showing how entrepreneurship can drive economic and social progress or hinder it through rent-seeking behaviors and exploitation of institutional gaps. By analyzing various settings, from capitalist to state-controlled economies, the book highlights the role of the 'rules of the game' in determining whether entrepreneurial activities contribute positively to society or perpetuate inequality and inefficiency. As such, in the context of emerging markets, this book addresses the question of when are entrepreneurial activities constructive and when are they destructive? Through a nuanced examination of diverse economic settings and institutional environments, the book illuminates how entrepreneurship can foster innovation and social value while also perpetuating corruption and inefficiency. By integrating theoretical frameworks with empirical evidence, it provides a comprehensive analysis of the factors influencing both productive and destructive entrepreneurial behaviors. The aim is to deepen readers' understanding of how entrepreneurship interacts with various contexts and to advocate for ethical and socially responsible practices, ultimately inviting contemplation on the challenges and opportunities that arise in the evolving landscape of entrepreneurship. As such, this book is a valuable resource for scholars studying these phenomena but also practitioners, and policymakers alike.
