A (partial) review of entrepreneurship literature across disciplines

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to stimulate researchers’ interest by acquainting them with some aspects of the entrepreneurship literature they may not have known. Design/methodology/approach – The paper is a non-meta-analytic literature review of several literatures in entrepreneurship. Findings – The entrepreneurship literature is vast and can be found in every discipline where humans and their behaviour are the object of analysis. Research limitations/implications – Because the entrepreneurship literature is so large and widespread, the paper reviews only a small, deliberately chosen sample of the literature. Originality/value – To the authors’ knowledge, no one has previously written a unified review of the market entrepreneurship, political entrepreneurship, and public choice.
