商品描述

This book offers a critique of social justice theory and its impact on entrepreneurship scholarship. It traces its deep roots in postmodernism by positioning entrepreneurship within these new intellectual, social, and economic environments. It highlights current philosophical assumptions, with implications for boundary conditions that we apply as scientists. Science depends on theoretical assumptions and boundary conditions. Unfortunately, a glaring weakness in entrepreneurship research has been its general failure to identify these premises. No theory is universally applicable, so its assumptions and boundary conditions are what give it analytical power. Where do they come from? Simply stated, they come from a theory's philosophy of science. However, even more rare than stating assumptions and boundary conditions is to discuss a study's governing philosophy. In fact, no known research published in entrepreneurship has discussed a study's philosophical orientation. This provocative work details postmodern concerns related to critical theory, their origins, their status, and specifically how they impact entrepreneurship and those who are not designated as either the victimized or part of the white patriarchy. It will challenge the current direction of entrepreneurship research and confront the general acceptance of the tenets of postmodernism among management scholars.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書對社會正義理論及其對創業學術的影響進行了批判。它追溯了該理論在後現代主義中的深厚根基，並將創業置於這些新的知識、社會和經濟環境中。書中突顯了當前的哲學假設，並探討了作為科學家的我們所應用的邊界條件。科學依賴於理論假設和邊界條件。不幸的是，創業研究的一個明顯弱點在於其普遍未能識別這些前提。沒有任何理論是普遍適用的，因此其假設和邊界條件賦予了它分析的力量。這些假設和邊界條件來自何處？簡單來說，它們來自於理論的科學哲學。然而，討論研究的主導哲學比陳述假設和邊界條件更為罕見。事實上，至今尚無已知的創業研究發表過對研究哲學取向的討論。本書詳細闡述了與批判理論相關的後現代關注，探討了它們的起源、地位，以及它們如何影響創業及那些不被指定為受害者或白人父權體系一部分的人。本書將挑戰當前創業研究的方向，並對管理學者普遍接受後現代主義的信條提出質疑。
