Institutional Determinants of Macro–Level Entrepreneurship
这项跨国研究实证探索了影响宏观层面创业的制度因素，发现社会规范、文化认知和规制制度与创业活动相关，其中规范和文化认知的解释力高于规制制度或人均GDP。
This multicountry study empirically explores the institutional determinants of macro–level entrepreneurship. Findings suggest that a society's normative, cultural–cognitive, and regulative institutions are related to entrepreneurial activity. Normative and cultural–cognitive institutions’ descriptive power in explaining entrepreneurial activity is higher than regulative institutions’ or per capita gross domestic product. This suggests that differences in values, beliefs, and abilities may play a greater role than purely economic considerations of opportunity and transaction costs. Specific attention is given to opportunity– and necessity–motivated entrepreneurship due to their relationship to economic development.
