Chapter Chapter 3 in Women Entrepreneurs and Business Empowerment in Muslim Countries, 2022, pp 87-129 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter investigates the conditions and enablers of success for women’s small businesses based on the study of the Indonesian context. It argues that the concept of a people’s economy employed by the government and appropriate interpretations of Islam by Muslim women’s organisations together have facilitated the growth of female entrepreneurship. This chapter provides a historical overview of the government’s policies, the context of an Islamic economy, and responses of Muslim organisations to women being involved in small businesses. All of these factors have created suitable conditions that assisted women, especially those of the middle class, in becoming Muslim mompreneurs.
