The Influence of Formal and Informal Institutional Voids on Entrepreneurship
提出正式与非正式制度空白的概念,分析其严重程度如何影响创业活动的生产力,并探讨两者如何共同塑造创业活动的形式与目标。
Building new space for institutional theory, we propose how the severity of formal and informal institutional voids shapes the productivity of entrepreneurial activities within society. Our theory makes the key assumptions that voids can exist in both formal and informal institutions and that they are capable of hindering entrepreneurial behavior that is favorable to development progress. We extend new theoretical domains by conceptualizing informal institutional voids and proposing how both formal and informal institutional voids and their interaction influence two qualitative outcomes within localities: (1) the unique forms of entrepreneurial activity, and (2) the objectives underlying this entrepreneurial activity.
