Publisher Description: This major study of the phenomenon of entrepreneurship focuses on the significance of entrepreneurship in the socioeconomic development of a society, and the economic and noneconomic factors which promote its emergence. Comparatively and analytically, it looks at five societies that achieved industrialization during the 18th and 19th century (England, France, Prussia-Germany, Japan, and the U.S.) and one that did not (Russia). |
