“…A review of PE literature from the six databases exploited by this review revealed that five systematic reviews were published between 2010-2019 (Ali et al, 2019;Eleni & Lorraine, 2019;Hayter et al, 2018;Lerner, 2010;Lucas, 2017). While Lerner (2010); Lucas (2017); Hayter et al (2018); and Eleni & Lorraine (2019) focused on specific aspects and location of PE research (public policies), only Ali et al (2019) did a comprehensive review of PE research. Hence, the subsequent paragraphs will discuss these studies.…”

“…The reforms were aimed at reducing or cutting local government spending and embark on strict supervision of local government activities. Ali et al (2019) conducted a systematic review of PE research and focused on the performance of the public sector. The study reviewed 90 English peer-reviewed articles sourced from undisclosed databases.…”

“…This is because only five systematic reviews of PE articles were found out of which four were policy-based and are limited to a particular locality, and only one was article based. This meagre number of systematic reviews may be because PE researches are just coming up in recent times (Ali et al, 2019).…”

“…This is despite the role played by local governments in bringing government closer to the people at the grassroots (Eleni & Lorraine, 2019). This oversight has been linked to poor management and administration of local governments around the globe (Ali et al, 2019;Delabbio & Zeemering, 2013;Fuller & Dellsanti, 2017;Smith, 2012). However, the role of local governments on national development can never be overemphasized (Smith, 2012).…”

The aim of the article is to review some basic issues surrounding public entrepreneurship (PE), as it is perceived as a measure to improve the performance of public organizations. Research Design & Methods: This article uses Systematic Assessment Quantitative Technique (SQAT) advanced by Australian researchers (Catherine Pickering and Jason Antony Byrne). It allows the reproduction of verifiable reviews, through geographical, theoretical, and methodological gaps identification in literature. 61 peer-reviewed PE articles from six quality academic databases were systematically reviewed based on the following headings: time and geographical distributions, article type (conceptual or empirical), theories, themes, and methods of data collection. Findings: The analysis shows that large numbers of PE articles were published in 2016, with more publications in North America and Europe, while Africa has meagre publications. Most of PE articles are conceptually inclined and this suggests more empirical studies be conducted so as to have scientific knowledge of PE adoption. Besides, the study revealed that PE is mostly adopted by federal and state governments across the globe with little or no adoption at the local government level. Significant numbers of PE articles utilized one research method (the survey was dominantly used), future researchers can explore PE studies by merging more research methods to broaden the scope of PE. Implications & Recommendations: This study provides a clear picture of what is been investigated and has provided guides for future researchers to widen the knowledge adoption of PE around the globe for better service provision by public stakeholders Contribution & Value Added: The study systematically reviewed 61 peer-reviewed PE articles from six quality academic databases (Emerald, Elsevier, Sage, Springer, Taylor & Francis, and Wiley), thereby facilitating the understanding of PE and providing guides for future researchers of PE around the globe.
