Call for Papers! Unseating Western Hegemonies in Contextualised Research on Gender and Entrepreneurship!
Last Date to Submit-
Introduction
We invite submissions to this Special Issue of IJGE dedicated to examining and analyzing topics of gender and entrepreneurship based on non-western, as well as indigenous thinkers and philosophies.
Entrepreneurship and gender research is concerned with considerably varied entrepreneurial experiences in multiple cultural, economic, and political contexts worldwide. Yet, entrepreneurship and gender research, as other academic disciplines, has relied mainly on Western philosophies, theories and concepts to explain entrepreneurial phenomena across the globe with the aim to produce a generalized understanding of entrepreneurship (Brayboy et al 2012). Yet, entrepreneurship (e.g., organizational forms, behavior, motivations, and intentions, etc.) is context specific (Welter 2011) and reliance on Western based ontologies and epistemologies has proved insufficient to increase our understanding about entrepreneurial phenomena in non-western, global south or indigenous contexts (Anderson et al 2006; Peredo and McLean 2013; Henry et al. 2018).
