The Palgrave Handbook of Decolonising Entrepreneurship (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This handbook explores the concept referred to as the "coloniality of power", and the circumstances in which entrepreneurs find themselves, whilst also acknowledging the persistence of power relations in the entrepreneurial arena. The aim is to challenge entrepreneurial practices and discourses and theories on these practices.

The handbook addresses two main areas: 1. entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial situations that involve forms of coloniality of power; and 2. the conceptualisation and categorisations used in entrepreneurship, with knowledge that would benefit from being decolonised.

Drawing on the expertise of leading scholars, this handbook provides up-to-date coverage of issues confronting minoritised entrepreneurs, providing a potential way forward to making invisible under-represented entrepreneurs visible.

Bridget Irene is Senior Lecturer in business management at the Leicester Castle Business School, De Montfort University. Her scholarly interests range widely, encompassing entrepreneurship and focusing on the culturally instantiated facets of the debate on gender entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial competencies, family businesses, entrepreneurship education, and the informal economy. Her PhD research contributes to the already established discourse on gendering entrepreneurship and provides explicit feminist perspectives highlighting the inadvertent reinforcement of women’s subordination to men in the context of entrepreneurial endeavours. Bridget is the deputy track chair for the Entrepreneurship SIG at the British Academy of Management. Joan Lockyer is a Professor of Entrepreneurship. She has extensive experience of strategic leadership and entrepreneurship development in a wide range of organisation types. She has led several projects successful in Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia and the Middle East. Joan’s research interests focus on the transformative effect of entrepreneurship through education, but specifically on the interplay of policy, innovation and leadership. She is particularly interested in the role of entrepreneurship in helping minoritised and disadvantaged groups.
