CALL FOR PAPERS
Social and Sustainable Entrepreneurship
Volume 13 of Advances in Entrepreneurship, Firm Emergence and Growth
Due date: October 15, 2010 (full paper)
Editors:
G. T. Lumpkin, Syracuse University
Jerome Katz, Saint Louis University
Advances in Entrepreneurship, Firm Emergence and Growth provides an annual examination of the major current research, theoretical, and methodological efforts in the field of entrepreneurship, and its related disciplines, including firm emergence and growth research. The Advances series also publishes papers from other fields, such as strategy, organizational behavior, or sociology that use entrepreneurial samples or make a contribution to entrepreneurial theory or research.
Volume 13 will consider the timely issues of social and sustainable entrepreneurship. Of interest are manuscripts that consider in depth the issues, problems, contexts, or processes that make entrepreneurial enterprises more social and/or sustainable. A representative, but by no means exhaustive, listing of relevant topics includes:
* Social entrepreneurship processes involving opportunity recognition and evaluation
* Organizational forms of social enterprises
* Challenges of scaling and measuring social impact
* Emerging themes in social entrepreneurship education
* Cross-cultural comparative studies in social entrepreneurship
* Research challenges in social entrepreneurship
* Emergence and growth of entrepreneurial sustainable development efforts
* The allocation of entrepreneurial skills and resources to sustainability endeavors
* The progress and promise of sustainable entrepreneurship as a research domain
* Outcomes attributable to differences between social and sustainable entrepreneurship
The papers in Advances reflect many state-of-the-art topics and approaches, and are written by leading researches in the field, making each volume an important source of information for virtually all entrepreneurship researchers. The distinctive competence of research volumes such as Advances is that the chapters can be published without page restrictions allowing for greater detail in the background, development, and implementation of ideas than is possible in journal articles. This provides authors with the opportunity to fully express their key ideas, provide much more complete support, and include relevant multi-page appendices. In effect, the Advances series provides authors the opportunity to publish an "article of record" of their major theoretical or empirical ideas, and see it disseminated to a wide audience. Today, the series is in the libraries of virtually all of the schools with active Ph.D. programs in entrepreneurship, as well as the majority of AACSB accredited schools with MBA concentrations in entrepreneurship and related fields.
We are pleased to announce that Volume 13 will be published in conjunction with the 7th Annual Satter Conference on Social Entrepreneurship at New York University’s Stern School of Business to be held in November, 2010. Submissions to the conference will be reviewed for possible inclusion in the volume. Please Note: This is an open call. You are not required or expected to attend the NYU conference to submit to Volume 13.
We welcome the opportunity to discuss paper ideas with interested researchers. Submissions to Volume 13 of Advances will be blind reviewed by peers. Contact information for the editors: Tom Lumpkin, 315/443-3164,
