{"product_id":"corruption-and-entrepreneurship-mohammad-heydari-9781032589978","title":"Corruption and Entrepreneurship: Testing the Theory of Planned Behavior","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book examines corruption as a collective behavior problem for entrepreneurs. In particular, it considers Azjen's theory of planned behavior (TPB) to explain perceived corruption and its effects on entrepreneurship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeydari argues that behavioral intentions are shaped by variables such as attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control. He proposes the novel Heydari Behavioral Synthesis Theory (HBST) model and applies it to two case studies to highlight the institutional, individual and societal factors that may inhibit entrepreneurial behavior. He concludes that corruption may persist not just because of difficulties in monitoring and prosecuting, but because it is systemically pervasive and discourages individual countermeasures. He closes by looking at anti-corruption policies and outlining future research directions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArguing that widespread corruption may be theoretically mischaracterized in the literature, this book is of interest to policy-makers, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of management science, industrial and organizational psychology, entrepreneurship and corruption studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mohammad Heydari\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032589973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032589978\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.43d","brand":"Mohammad Heydari","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48175775777023,"sku":"9781032589978","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_02be817f-e25e-449c-994d-fc2def61ed88.jpg?v=1771335831","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/corruption-and-entrepreneurship-mohammad-heydari-9781032589978","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
