Chapter Chapter 3 in Chinese Entrepreneurship, 2012, pp 37-57 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In the previous chapter we have crafted the most basic definition of ‘entrepreneurs’ as people who have opted to derive their income not from employment but from their own enterprise. We then want to study the mechanism that make some people make such a decision. We could probably perform a study like this without spending any time and effort on the nature of enterprises. However, although the topic of our study is Chinese entrepreneurship, we wish to contribute with our findings to the general discussions on entrepreneurship, we need to start this chapter with a short look at the position of the enterprise in China.
