Abstract:
This special issue is devoted to understanding the scientific structure of
entrepreneurship research. Research in entrepreneurship has grown rapidly,
encompassing multiple theoretical and methodological traditions. Articles
in this issue use bibliometric techniques to find linkages among published
entrepreneurship scholars. These analyses show that research in the
entrepreneurship field contains: multiple but disconnected themes; dominant
themes that reflect the disciplinary training and lens of their authors;
and considerable dynamism and change in key research themes over time.
These special issue articles provide rich opportunities for identifying
insightful, influential, and creative research niches in the
entrepreneurship field.
