Religious Doctrines and their Influence on Entrepreneurship

Autor James O. Fiet
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 noi 2023
This book explores how religious doctrines influence launching a new venture. It examines 16 Christian denominations and 9 world religions and how they would reasonably be expected to apply more than 20 distinct doctrines each to entrepreneurship. It is not an examination of doctrinal veracity because adherents have confidence in their beliefs. Rather, it examines how they will evaluate the attractiveness of entrepreneurship through the lenses of their beliefs, assuming they receive what they expect. More than 100 years ago, Max Weber pitted Protestantism against Hinduism in a single hypothesis. The current study is a multifactorial examination that covers the world’s major religions, as well as most of their doctrines. It is the first comprehensive examination of how entrepreneurs view the world through the lenses of their religious doctrines, which represent the formalization of their most deeply held beliefs.

“There are those who say that Religion and entrepreneurship do not mix. With this book, Fiet shatters this myth. For many entrepreneurs, their faith has been a central influence in shaping their worldviews. This book provides an excellent resource for pursuing such inquiries.”
Lowell Busenitz, Professor Emeritus of Entrepreneurship, University of Oklahoma, United States
“Professor Fiet examines what effect a belief system would have on entrepreneurial outcomes, while providing his own rationale. He is quick to point out that readers could differ.  However, the framework offered by Fiet’s book could greatly reduce confusion about where disagreements exist.”
Jeffery S. McMullen, David H. Jacobs Chair in Strategic Entrepreneurship and Professor of Entrepreneurship, Indiana University, United States
“Professor Fiet advances the field from a general understanding of religion to a specific application of the different doctrines withinand between different religions. This book makes an important contribution to the future of scholarship by highlighting how and why these distinctions matter.  It provides a comprehensive, provocative, and even controversial analysis of the role of religion in entrepreneurship.”
Brett Smith, Founder Director, L.I.F.E. (Leading the Integration of Faith & Entrepreneurship) Research Center, Miami University, United States
