Opportunities, Language, and Time
探讨了机会在创业实践与学术研究中的不同含义，指出学术立场回避了创业经验的核心方面，并提出了从语言依赖到语言独立的演化过程，重新定义学者与创业者关系为团结而非客观。
Opportunity has different meanings in entrepreneurial practice and academic scholarship that are entwined with the distinct activities of dealing with practical contingencies and capturing theoretical necessities. The language and time of an academic stance sidestep defining aspects of the entrepreneurial experience: its indeterminate situations, instrumental role of language, and role of knowledge as guide to action. Seeking attunement with these aspects, this paper outlines the evolution of opportunity from language dependence to language independence within a process of transition from individual aspirations to social structure. This opens up promising research directions, in which the scholar–entrepreneur relationship is redefined in terms of solidarity rather than objectivity. Alongside the traditional emphasis on theoretical contribution, research could seek design and phronetic contributions in an open-ended search for better ideas for coping with a contingent reality.
