Entrepreneurship, economic growth, and geography
解释创业如何成为促进经济增长的关键政策工具,整合国际贸易、创新、创业和经济地理四类文献,强调创业在地方和区域层面经济政策知识中的重要作用。
This paper explains how and why entrepreneurship has emerged as a key component of economic policy to enhance the economic growth performance. Understanding the linkages between entrepreneurship and economic growth requires drawing upon four disparate literatures: international trade and growth, innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic geography. Integrating the key insights from these literatures provides a framework highlighting the important role played by entrepreneurship in economic policy knowledge to enhance the economic growth performance, particularly at the local and regional levels.
