Entrepreneurship in a Time of Social Justice Advocacy

Autor James O. Fiet
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 iul 2024
This book offers a critique of social justice theory and its impact on entrepreneurship scholarship. It traces its deep roots in postmodernism by positioning entrepreneurship within these new intellectual, social, and economic environments. It highlights current philosophical assumptions, with implications for boundary conditions that we apply as scientists. Science depends on theoretical assumptions and boundary conditions. Unfortunately, a glaring weakness in entrepreneurship research has been its general failure to identify these premises. No theory is universally applicable, so its assumptions and boundary conditions are what give it analytical power. Where do they come from? Simply stated, they come from a theory's philosophy of science. However, even more rare than stating assumptions and boundary conditions is to discuss a study's governing philosophy. In fact, no known research published in entrepreneurship has discussed a study's philosophical orientation. This provocative work details postmodern concerns related to critical theory, their origins, their status, and specifically how they impact entrepreneurship and those who are not designated as either the victimized or part of the white patriarchy. It will challenge the current direction of entrepreneurship research and confront the general acceptance of the tenets of postmodernism among management scholars.

This book offers a critique of social justice theory and its impact on entrepreneurship. It traces social justice’s deep roots in postmodernism by positioning it within new intellectual, social, and economic environments. It highlights underlying theoretical assumptions, with implications for boundary conditions. Science depends on assumptions and boundary conditions. Unfortunately, a glaring weakness in entrepreneurship research has been its general failure to identify these premises. No theory is universally applicable, so its assumptions and boundary conditions are what give it analytical power. They come from a theory's philosophy of science. However, even more rare than stating assumptions and boundary conditions is to discuss a study's philosophy. In fact, no known entrepreneurship research has discussed a study's philosophical orientation. This provocative work details postmodern grievances related to critical theory, their origins, and specifically how they impact entrepreneurship. It will challenge the current direction of entrepreneurship research and confront the general acceptance of the tenets of postmodernism among entrepreneurship scholars.
