Cristina Cruz, Martín Larraza‐Kintana, Lucía Garcés–Galdeano, Pascual Berrone
This paper conducts an empirical study as to whether family firms are more socially responsible than their nonfamily counterparts and explores the conditions in which this difference in social behavior occurs. We argue that family firms, given their socioemotional wealth bias, have a positive effect on social dimensions linked to external stakeholders, yet have a negative impact on internal social... hiện toàn bộ

This paper seeks to stimulate additional research on the entrepreneurship–as–emancipation perspective. We extend extant work by specifying the practices within developed regions from which entrepreneurs arguably pursue liberation and then developing hypotheses pertaining to the incidence, determinants, and outcomes associated with departure from such norms. Our survey findings offer evidence to qu... hiện toàn bộ
Determinants of Social Entrepreneurial Intentions
Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice - Tập 41 Số 1 - Trang 105-130 - 2017
Kai Hockerts
This article tests the model proposed by Mair and Noboa (2006) who identify four antecedents which they suggest predict social entrepreneurial intentions. The study extends the model by including prior experience with social problems as an additional variable. Findings show that prior experience predicts social entrepreneurial intentions. This effect is mediated by the antecedents suggested by Mai... hiện toàn bộ

Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice - Tập 41 Số 3 - Trang 311-321 - 2017
Friederike Welter, Ted Baker, David B. Audretsch, William B. Gartner
This essay contrasts a perspective that places an excessive focus on technology businesses and growth with a view of entrepreneurship that embraces its heterogeneity. We challenge a taken–for–granted belief that only certain kinds of entrepreneurship might lead to wealth and job creation and additionally suggest that these two outcomes (wealth and job creation) need to be placed within a broader c... hiện toàn bộ

Corporate Governance and Competitive Advantage in Family–Controlled Firms
Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice - Tập 29 Số 3 - Trang 249-265 - 2005

Recent attempts to identify the basis of family–controlled firms’ competitive advantage have drawn upon the resource–based view of the firm. This article supplements these efforts and advances the argument that family–controlled firms’ competitive advantage arises from their system of corporate governance. Systems of corporate governance embody incentives, authority patterns, and norms of legitima... hiện toàn bộ

Isabelle Le Breton–Miller, Danny Miller
Family businesses (FBs) play a key role in the world's economies. Unfortunately, the current literature surfaces disparate understandings and conclusions concerning their conduct and performance. Much of that literature falls under two insightful perspectives, agency theory and stewardship theory, that conflict quite directly. The agency view, based in economics, maintains that families will pursu... hiện toàn bộ

Policy makers and practitioners must, however, be aware that the scale of family firm activity in any developed economy is highly sensitive to the family firm definition selected. Within a ... hiện toàn bộ
