Entrepreneurship and Organization

Working from a unique standpoint and challenging the orthodoxy on entrepreneurship this controversial book explores the possibilities of entrepreneurship in organizations and entrepreneurship in organization creation whilst re-anchoring entrepreneurship within a broader disciplinary approach.

Demonstrating that there is an increasingly relevant and complex relationship between entrepreneurship and organization, this volume:

• de-contextualizes entrepreneurship from its present inclusion in management
• provides the philosophical and historical conditions for the emergence of entrepreneurship and management in society
• re-contextualizes entrepreneurship in organization via its central concepts of imagination, desire/passion, power, becoming and organizational creation
• places entrepreneurship among the natural human activities in organized contexts.

A fascinating account of the relationship between entrepreneurship and organization, this book is a must read for all those researching entrepreneurship, organizational theory, and business and management thought.
