Call for papers for a special issue on culture, innovation and entrepreneurship

摘要

While the study of innovation and entrepreneurship is a diverse, multi-disciplinary endeavor, the role of culture is often neglected or under-emphasized (Lounsbury & Glynn, 2001). However, building on the cultural turn across the social sciences and humanities (Weber & Dacin, 2011; Friedland & Mohr, 2004), there has been a recent flowering of conversations on how culture shapes innovation and entrepreneurship. This work has drawn on various cultural theories and concepts including boundaries, logics, schemas, scripts, and values (e.g., Gehman, Trevi?o, & Garud, 2013; Perkmann & Spicer, 2014; Thornton, Ocasio, & Lounsbury, 2012; Zietsma & Lawrence, 2010), narratives, vocabularies, discourse and framing (e.g., Bartel & Garud, 2009; Cornelissen & Werner, 2014; Dalpiaz, Tracey, & Phillips, 2014; Grodal & Granqvist, 2014; Kahl & Grodal, 2016; Zilber, 2007), identity, categories, and practices (e.g., Durand, Granqvist, & Tyllstr?m, 2017; Kennedy & Fiss, 2013; Lounsbury & Crumley, 2007; Navis & Glynn, 2010). While these recent advances are encouraging, the work has been scattered and these various contributions are yet to be synthesized into a more coherent and cumulative research program.
