Entrepreneurship and Development: The Minorcan Model (Eighteenth–Twentieth Centuries)

Alfons Méndez-Vidal and Juan Hernández-Andreu

Chapter 7 in Entrepreneurship and Growth, 2013, pp 175-194 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter we offer the result of a study concerning the most important businessmen of Minorca (Méndez and Hernández-Andreu, 2011). We think that we can offer a new insight into the relationship between entrepreneurial activity and economic development. This topic is far from new in the economic literature of the island, as its importance was highlighted in 1991 by Guillem López in a seminal work (López Casasnovas, 1976, 1991) that has hitherto guided the research in the area.
