Call-For-Papers
Special Issue of the Journal of Small Business & Entrepreneurship
Full Paper Submission deadline: November 30th 2006
Entrepreneurship and enterprise development take on different forms of development and are affected by distinctive regional, cultural and political landscapes. This issue focuses on people and places, and their role on enterprise development. As the celebration of entrepreneurship and its purpose in the global competitive arena continues, there is a rising need to understand the role that different cultures, regions and political / economic landscapes have on enterprise development. JSBE is seeking papers that explore cultural and regional characteristics of entrepreneurship, and their impact on enterprise development.
Understanding the role of regional heterogeneity in entrepreneurship provides promise towards assisting development of underdeveloped regions of the world as well as less developed regions of industrialized countries. Such an examination is bound to bring up questions such as: Do regional characteristics play a role in entrepreneurship, or is entrepreneurship a universal concept? How do different countries or regions develop entrepreneurship, and what are some considerations that should be observed? What is the role of indigenous culture in this process?
This JSBE special issue seeks manuscripts that explore these and other questions related to the role of regional heterogeneity in entrepreneurship and enterprise development.
Authors should follow the JSBE manuscript format as described in the "Information for Authors" at the end of each issue of JSBE or on the webpage at www.JSBE.com.
