Exploring the potential impact of colonialism on national patterns of entrepreneurial networking
研究提出创业网络存在变体普遍性，即跨国模式受文化调节，并探讨殖民主义是否是其文化驱动因素之一，通过比较塞浦路斯、希腊和英国创业者的个人网络来验证。
This study emphasizes the concept of variform universality and considers whether colonialism may be one of the cultural drivers of such divergence. We use a well-established methodology to explore the personal entrepreneurial networks of Cypriots with those of their Greek and English counterparts. We suggest that entrepreneurial networking exhibits variform universality, whereby patterns evident across nations are moderated by culture. We conclude by relating these tentative findings to other work suggesting that power-related phenomena may be important in shaping variform universality in entrepreneurial networks. We recommend post-colonial theory as a promising path to explore these in-between social spaces where the entrepreneurship of the dominated is enacted.
