Reviews

The causal relationships behind the emergence of entrepreneurship in regions and nations are hard to identify and replicate. A reasonable entrepreneurship policy is therefore one based on economic theory and available evidence, coupled with a holistic approach that takes into account the specific situation of each region or country and which avoids one-size-fits-all recommendations. For such an entrepreneurship policy, The Entrepreneurial Society should be mandatory reading. (Karl Wennberg, Journal of Evolutionary Economics, Vol. 30, 2020)
