No RP2009-41, WIDER Working Paper Series from World Institute for Development Economic Research (UNU-WIDER)
Abstract:
Existing indicators of entrepreneurial activity (such as the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, Entrepreneurship Barometer, FORA's Entrepreneurship Index, OECD and Economic Commission's sets of indicators, among others) and several variables that have been considered good proxies for entrepreneurship during the last decades seem to be unsuitable to capture the complex relationship among economic, social, and demographic factors driving entrepreneurial activity.
