- This study analyzes the relationship between self-employment, corruption, and property rights in 30 European countries, including 11 Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) economies, across the two decades of 1996–2016. In general, relatively little research has focused on the relationship between entrepreneurship and the protection of property rights. Furthermore, past findings show that corruption may have both negative and positive effects on the level of entrepreneurial activity, either “greasing” or “sanding” the wheels for entrepreneurship. Overall, research on how the informal institution corruption and the formal institution property rights are linked to entrepreneurship in post-socialist/transition economies has been limited. We find that stronger protection of property rights increases self-employment ratios, both in Europe in general and in CEE economies. The relationship between self-employment and the control of corruption is not significant. We conclude that neither higher nor lower levels of corruption control affect the share of self-employment. In comparative perspective, the ratio of self-employment in the group of CEE economies does not respond differently to these two key institutions.

- The corporate entrepreneurship literature has identifed the importance of intrapre‑neurs for maintaining growth, revitalization, and performance of corporations, butlittle is known about intrapreneurs and how they perceive their corporate workingconditions. The working conditions in the corporation have an efect on employees’behavior. This paper empirically investigates corporate conditions from the individ‑ual’s perspective as well as the types of intrapreneurs that exist. The fndings from acluster analysis of intrapreneurs suggests that there are three types of intrapreneurs:resilient intrapreneurs, neglected intrapreneurs, and privileged intrapreneurs. Over‑all, the fndings show that intrapreneurial behavior and corporate conditions arerelated and that organizations purposefully can design their corporate environmentto support diferent intrapreneurs.
