Contextualizing Entrepreneurship Theory
As the breadth and empirical diversity of entrepreneurship research have increased rapidly during the last decade, the quest to find a "one-size-fits-all" general theory of entrepreneurship has given way to a growing appreciation for the importance of contexts. This promises to improve both the practical relevance and the theoretical rigor of research in this field. Entrepreneurship means different things to different people at different times an…
Some Heuristics for Researchers Embracing a Critical Process Approach
In the previous chapter, we noted that “[t]he CPA (. . .) is critical because it takes practical and moral issue with the contours of power and privilege that channel who our research serves; it is a process because it recognizes that the attempt to open up to scrutiny and dismantle any reified assumption that serve powerful interests needs to be sustained and joined by multiple researchers; it is an approach , rather than a technique, because it…
Why It's Hard to Look Back Once You Have Embraced Contexts
It is our experience—and one that has been shared with us by a number of other entrepreneurship researchers—that once you engage in attempting to contextualize your work, it becomes hard to see entrepreneurship research through any other lens. Looking back at our own earlier work, many of us are filled with the recognition that our urge to quickly create widely generalizable findings caused us to miss too many opportunities to pay attention to co…
Constructing Contexts
As a building block towards our Critical Process Approach, we now turn to how entrepreneurs “do contexts”. We will discuss the construction of contexts in more detail, looking at enactment and the roles of language and imagery from a suggestively interdisciplinary perspective. The entrepreneurship field is a latecomer in this regard, moving in the wake of other disciplines with a long tradition of taking into consideration socially constructed co…
Synthesizing the Context Debate in Entrepreneurship Research
This chapter synthesizes some of the progress to date as a way to introduce some ideas about to how to continue the process of contextualizing entrepreneurship research and theory. Among entrepreneurship scholars, the context debate gathered momentum in the early part of this century. Studies on portfolio entrepreneurship, farm and micro-businesses in rural areas have long argued for a household perspective on entrepreneurship because households …
Why Contexts Play an Ever-Increasing Role in Entrepreneurship Research
This chapter briefly presents some arguments for why we need to continue progress on building a contextualized perspective in entrepreneurship research. Anthropologists, as well as scholars from a variety of liberal arts disciplines such as philosophy and literary studies, have struggled over how to choose and delimit how they contextualize their work. Drawing from the movement towards taking “environments” into consideration that swept organizat…
Problematizing, Making Choices and Asking Who Our Research Serves
Earlier, we introduced some common themes and patterns of contextualization and showed how entrepreneurship research has—or has not— dealt with contexts over time and what “doing context” implies. We then focused on how entrepreneurs themselves do context, discussing contextualization in terms of enactment, use of language and images. In this chapter we now will turn to theorizing contexts as a Critical Process Approach, attempting to go beyond w…
Narrating and Visualizing Contexts
There are many research approaches that can be put to good use in researching contexts empirically while applying a critical lens. Unfortunately, our “research methods seem to have become a context in itself, irrespective of whether those methods are the best fit with our research questions”, and irrespective of whether they are context-sensitive ( Brännback & Carsrud, 2016 , p. 21). In contrast, doing context critically implies a different way o…

Entrepreneurship as a new liberal art
Everyday Entrepreneurship—A Call for Entrepreneurship Research to Embrace Entrepreneurial Diversity
This essay contrasts a perspective that places an excessive focus on technology businesses and growth with a view of entrepreneurship that embraces its heterogeneity. We challenge a taken–for–granted belief that only certain kinds of entrepreneurship might lead to wealth and job creation and additionally suggest that these two outcomes (wealth and job creation) need to be placed within a broader context of reasons, purposes, and values for why an…
