Parker provides a timely, definitive and comprehensive overview of the field. In this book he brings together and assesses the large and disparate literature on these subjects and provides an up-to-date overview of new research findings. Key issues addressed include: the impact of ability, risk, personal characteristics and the macroeconomy on entrepreneurship; issues involved in raising finance for entrepreneurial ventures, with an emphasis on the market failures that can arise as a consequence of asymmetric information; the job creation performance of the self-employed; the growth, innovation and exit behaviour of new ventures and small firms; and the appropriate role for governments interested in promoting self-employment and entrepreneurship. This book will serve as an essential reference guide to researchers, students and teachers of entrepreneurship in economics, business and management and other related disciplines.The Economics of Self-Employment & EntrepreneurshipManagerial economicsEntrepreneurshipNew business enterprisesManagementSelf-employedSelf-employedGovernment policyCase studiesManagerial economics.Entrepreneurship.New business enterprisesManagement.Self-employed.Self-employedGovernment policy338/.04Parker Simon C.594734UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910971043303321The economics of self-employment and entrepreneurship4426672UNINA
