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. James O.
