Entreprenöriella landsbygdsenklaver : Genomförda studentprojekt i Långasjö socken under 2013
- 2013
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Projektet ’Entreprenöriella landsbygdsenklaver’ är det första projekt som tilldelats medel av Familjen Kamprads stiftelse inom området entreprenörskap –särskilt sådan som främjar en levande landsbygd. Projektet bygger på idén att varje bygd har sina specifika förutsättningar och att människorna som bor där också är speciella, varför varje bygd har unika förutsättningar för entreprenörskap. Tidigt i planeringen av projektet skapades begreppet ”landsbygdsenklav” och med detta begrepp som ledstjärna identifierades socken som ett möjligt sätt att uppfatta och beskriva en entreprenöriell bygd präglad av stark samhörighet och handlingskraft. I planeringen av projektet diskuterades vilka bygder (socknar) som skulleingå i studien, vilket ledde till att socknarna Långasjö i Emmaboda kommun samt Älmeboda/Rävemåla och Urshult i Tingsryds kommun valdes ut. Denna rapport redovisar delprojekten i Långasjö.

Making a case for gender-inclusive innovation through the concept of creative imitation
- 2011
-
In: Annals of Innovation & Entrepreneurship. - : Informa UK Limited. - 2000-7396. ; 2:2, s. 1-13
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Through creative imitation, this article aims to make the case for a more inclusive view on innovation related to gender. In entrepreneurship theory, innovation is usually associated with creativity as something extraordinary, followed by generalisations of how innovation is brought about, which are based upon dichotomies that lead to exclusion of those who are expected to innovate. Innovation policy tends to associate innovation with industrial, large-scale product development, to the neglect of other types of innovations. Therefore, policy and research both tend to disregard certain innovations that are pursued by certain actors in certain areas. In particular, women entrepreneurs are neglected, as are innovations within women-dominated industries. This marginalisation is, arguably, related to how innovation is conceptualised, which this article will scrutinise by means of gender theory and narrative theory. The article highlights the example of a businesswoman who has pursued innovation in the area of wedding arrangements, which represents one of the categories that have been marginalised in research and policy on innovation. The woman's story of one of her innovations is analysed based upon data collected at dialogue seminars. This illustrates how innovation – when regarded as a mediation between creativity and imitation – appears to be both extraordinary and everyday, as well as tied to the context in which it appears. This serves to bridge dichotomies and end up with an inclusive approach in terms of who is expected to innovate, where, and what. In so doing, this article challenges common assumptions regarding innovation and offers an original interpretation of how innovation is associated to imitation and gendered relations.

Narrating the Entrepreneur
- 2004
-
In: International Small Business Journal. - London : Sage. - 0266-2426 .- 1741-2870. ; 22:3, s. 273-293
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Within the social sciences narrative approaches have become more popular. In recent years ithas also been suggested that entrepreneurship research would benefit from the use of a narrative approach. Interest in this direction is now emerging. The purpose of this article is to illustrate and reflect upon how narrative approaches can contribute to entrepreneurship research. The article is focused on three areas: (1) The construction of entrepreneurial identities, (2) Entrepreneurial learning, (3) (Re)conceptualizing entrepreneurship. It is argued that a narrativeapproach contributes to the literature by enriching the understanding of what motivates individual entrepreneurs and the way they run their businesses. Storytelling is closely related to entrepreneurial learning and complements other approaches. Furthermore, storytelling and story-making serve as potential metaphors for conceptualizing and reconceptualizing entrepreneurship.
