Inhalt

Entrepreneurship scholars are increasingly interested in understanding the inherent heterogeneity of entrepreneurship and the conditions under which it occurs. One promising direction to study the multifaceted nature of entrepreneurship is the entrepreneurship in context debate which places entrepreneurship within its contextual boundaries to study how, when, and why entrepreneurship takes place. However, mainstream entrepreneurship research mostly pertains to Western contexts, studying high-growth and technology-oriented ventures in Europe and the United States. In fact, institutional contexts beyond the borders of the Western world largely remain underrepresented, leaving scholars with an incomplete understanding of how different institutional contexts shape entrepreneurship and vice versa. This dissertation contributes to the emerging entrepreneurship in context debate by providing a more nuanced understanding of the contextual elements that affect entrepreneurship in different institutional contexts as well as by shedding light on how entrepreneurship unfolds in the context of institutional uncertainty. It examines the contextual boundaries of the Knowledge Spillover Theory of Entrepreneurship on the country level, identifying entrepreneurial absorptive capacity and infrastructure as contextual boundaries that determine the conditions under which the theory holds and the extent to which it unfolds. Further, it explores how the Strategic Reference Point Theory unfolds in the context of institutional uncertainty, revealing limitations to its applicability and proposing specific components that need to be incorporated into the theory for it to be applicable in contexts of institutional uncertainty.
