International Entrepreneurship as a Scholarly Field

By Aidin Salamzadeh and Leo-Paul Dana

International Entrepreneurship as a Scholarly Field provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the complex nature of international entrepreneurship (IE). This monograph begins by defining key concepts and examining how internal and external factors influence entrepreneurial decision-making. It employs a multi-level analysis of the individual entrepreneur, the firm, and the country, revealing the interplay between personal traits, organizational capabilities, and national conditions that shape international ventures.A behavioral perspective offers deeper insights into how entrepreneurs perceive and seize cross-border opportunities, providing a nuanced view of the motivations, risk assessments, and decision-making processes that drive international entrepreneurial behavior. This monograph also explores the structural and contextual factors, such as regulations, policies, and institutional frameworks, that either support or hinder entrepreneurial activities across different countries. Special attention is given to the challenges faced in developing nations, where factors like political stability and resource access play a crucial role.Emerging themes, such as the globalization of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and the rise of global startups, are highlighted as key areas for future research. This monograph concludes with a forward-looking perspective on trends and methodologies, offering a roadmap for the continued evolution of IE as a scholarly field.
