بخشی از متن مقاله:
۱٫ Introduction

Entrepreneurship is a driver of economic development. Numerous studies highlight that business activity is a powerful source of economic growth and job creation and that productive entrepreneurship is crucial in terms of economic welfare (Zacharakis, Bygrave, & Shepherd, 2000; van Stel, Carree, & Thurik, 2005; Acs, Audretsch, Braunerhjelm, & Carlsson, 2012; Naudé, ۲۰۱۳). Thus, it is not surprising that many policy makers explicitly pursue policies that are aimed at increasing the amount of entrepreneurship, although there is no consensus on policy interventions that are more likely to affect entrepreneurship in a positive way, not only in terms of amount but also as regards characteristics of entrepreneurship (see Acs, Åstebro, Audretsch, & Robinson, 2016).

Nowadays entrepreneurship is predominantly considered as a comprehensive concept. From this perspective, the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) approach is widely used by academics and practitioners. GEM defines entrepreneurship as any attempt at new business or new venture creation, such as self-employment, a new business organization, or the expansion of an existing business, by an individual, a team of individuals, or an established business (Reynolds, Hay, & Camp, 1999). In this context, GEM analyzes the motivation to become an entrepreneur, differentiating between two different types of entrepreneurship, namely opportunity and necessity entrepreneurship (Reynolds, Bygrave, Autio, Cox, & Hay, 2002). On the one hand, opportunity entrepreneurs are those who start a business in order to pursue an opportunity, not being a forced choice. They usually start the business because they want either to earn more money or to be more independent. On the other hand, in entrepreneurship by necessity individuals feel obliged to start their own businesses because of involuntary job loss and the scarcity of vacancies. Consequently, the decision to become involved in an entrepreneurial activity is a forced choice, given that all other employment options are either absent or unsatisfactory. Thereby, whereas opportunity entrepreneurship tends to involve innovative attempts to exploit new market niches, necessity entrepreneurship is more consistent with imitative ventures. In recent years numerous authors have argued that the two types of entrepreneurship usually differ in human capital endowment, venture success, survival rates, job satisfaction, or impact on economic development, stressing the desirability of prioritizing opportunity entrepreneurship (see, for instance, Acs & Varga, 2005; Bergmann & Sternberg, 2007; Kautonen & Palmroos, 2010; Block, Kohn, Miller, & Ullrich, 2015).

The literature on entrepreneurship has primarily focused on individual-level characteristics of entrepreneurs and has tended to underestimate the institutional and policy environment. Nevertheless, in the last few decades some authors have underlined the role of institutions and policies for entrepreneurship. The pioneering works of North and Baumol provide important theoretical insights into entrepreneurial development in differing institutional environments. North (1990) refers to institutions as the norms and rules that guide society, conditioning and leading the framework of relations that occur within it, and which can be classified as informal institutions (ideas, beliefs, attitudes and values of the people) and formal institutions (political and legal rules, economic norms and contracts). He underlines that entrepreneurs are the main agents of change and that organizations, such as firms set up by entrepreneurs, adapt their activities and strategies to fit the opportunities and limitations provided through formal and informal institutional frameworks. Baumol (1990) hypothesizes that entrepreneurial individuals channel their efforts in different directions depending on the quality of prevailing economic, political, and legal institutions. He states that entrepreneurship can manifest itself in productive, unproductive, and destructive form. His contribution is significant because it suggests that the policy focus should be on how to improve the quality of institutions to encourage entrepreneurs to redirect their activities towards productive activities that create economic welfare for society. In this line, Sobel (2008) confirms Baumol’s theory and asserts that better institutions have both more productive entrepreneurship and also less unproductive entrepreneurship. He stresses that the best path to foster entrepreneurship is through institutional reforms that constrain or minimize the role of government.
