Taylor and Francis Ltd Women's Entrepreneurship 2nd Edition 2022 by McAdam, Maura

Drawing on the entrepreneurial ecosystem as a frame of reference, this new edition of Female Entrepreneurship - Women's Entrepreneurship - continues to challenge contemporary assumptions regarding who or what is an entrepreneur. It draws upon relevant literature and research to enable research-led teaching delivery and provides students with a comprehensive understanding of women's entrepreneurship and a solid foundation from which they can pursue further studies. _x000D__x000D_Informative but concise, Women's Entrepreneurship covers key concepts, issues, themes and approaches and provides useful suggested topics for debate. Updates include a revised chapter on Emerging Technologies and Women's Entrepreneurship, which explores digital entrepreneurship and cyberfeminism. Contextualisation of Women's Entrepreneurship acknowledges the broader contextual influences on women's entrepreneurship. Finally, two new chapters have been added looking at The Entrepreneurial Ecosystem and Women's Entrepreneurship Policy. International case studies explore the socio-economic context for women's entrepreneurship in regional, national and international economies. Pedagogy to aid learning is incorporated throughout, including learning outcomes, boxes to highlight key research insights and best practice as well as discussion points and activities. _x000D__x000D_This book is important supplementary reading on entrepreneurship, small business management and women's and gender studies courses - it will prove particularly useful to women moving towards starting their own business as well as postgraduate students researching the topic for the first time._x000D_ _x000D_ Contents_x000D_ _x000D_ List of figures, tables and boxes..........................................................................._x000D_ _x000D_ Acknowledgements_x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 1: Setting the Scene_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Introduction.........................................._x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Statement of Aims_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Women's Entrepreneurship Defined_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Before We Start- a Few Statistics_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ The Lure of Business Ownership_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Profile of Women Owned Businesses_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Book Structure_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 2: The Entrepreneurial Ecosystem_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.1 Introduction_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.2 Learning Outcomes_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.3 Theoretical Grounding of the Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Approach_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.4 The Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Defined_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.5 Ecosystem - Its Theoretical Roots_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.6 An Inclusive Entrepreneurial Ecosystem_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.7 Entrepreneurial Ecosystem and Gender_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.8 Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Intermediaries_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.9 Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Critique_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.10 Conclusion_x000D_ _x000D_ 2.11 Discussion Points and Activities_x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 3: The Socio-Economic Context of Women's Entrepreneurship_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.1 Introduction_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.2 Learning Outcomes_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.3 Labour Market Structure_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.4 Occupational Segregation_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.5 Gender Wage Gap_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.6 Work-life Balance_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.7 Workplace Discrimination and the Glass Ceiling Effect_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.8 Segregated Employment Patterns and Women's Entrepreneurship_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.9 Conclusion_x000D_ _x000D_ 3.10 Discussion Points and Activities_x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 4: Women's Entrepreneurship Policy_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.1 Introduction_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.2 Learning Outcomes_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.3 Entrepreneurship Policy Efforts_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.4 Women's Entrepreneurship Policy_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.5 Fix the Woman Approach_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.6 Evaluation of Entrepreneurship Policy_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.7 Lean in Solutions_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.8 Gender Mainstreaming_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.9 Conclusion_x000D_ _x000D_ 4.10 Discussion Points and Activities_x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 5: Entrepreneurship as Gendered_x000D_ _x000D_ 5.1 Introduction_x000D_ _x000D_ 5.2 Learning Outcomes_x000D_ _x000D_ 5.3 The question should not be 'who is an entrepreneur' but rather 'who is an entrepreneuse'?_x000D_ _x000D_ 5.4 Societal Gendered Expectations_x000D_ _x000D_ 5.5 Gender Stereotypes and Entrepreneurial Intentions_x000D_ _x000D_ 5.6 The Implications of the Androcentric Entrepreneurial Mentality_x000D_ _x000D_ 5.7 The Female Under-Performance Hypothesis_x000D_ _x000D_ 5.8 Conclusion_x000D_ _x000D_ Chapter 6: Feminist Methodological Approaches_x000D_ _x000D_ 6.1 Introduction_x000D_ _x000D_ 6.2 Learning Outcomes_x000D_ _x000D_ 6.3 What is Gender?
