As a result, cultivating a strong culture of entrepreneurial thinking has become a primary goal throughout the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurprisingly, there has been little systematic research or comparative analysis to show how the growth of entrepreneurship differs among countries in various stages of development. \u003ci\u003eInternational Differences in Entrepreneurship\u003c\/i\u003e fills this void by explaining how a country's institutional differences, cultural considerations, and personal characteristics can affect the role that entrepreneurs play in its economy. Developing an understanding of the origins of entrepreneurs as well as the choices they make and the complexity of their activities across countries and industries are of central importance to this volume. In addition, contributors consider how environmental factors of individual economies, such as market regulation, government subsidies for banks, and support for entrepreneurial culture affect the industry and the impact that entrepreneurs have on growth in developing nations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Josh Lerner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226473090\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226473093\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Josh Lerner","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086412722431,"sku":"9780226473093","price":123.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2977afa3-d022-4c10-bdc4-9f78570728f3.jpg?v=1769094527","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/international-differences-in-entrepreneurship-josh-lerner-9780226473093","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
