“…Klepper's (2010Klepper's ( , 2011 story suggests that a culture may be more an outcome of a first cohort of entrepreneurs that initiate virtuous self-reinforcing processes of spinoffs, labor mobility and social network externalities. A vivid entrepreneurial culture may not be the cause but rather a by-product of institutions that foster entrepreneurship (Boettke and Coyne 2009). Culture is then a proximate rather than an ultimate cause.…”

Terms of use: Documents in AbstractWe review and assess the role local institutional framework conditions play in fostering local entrepreneurship. The basic premise is that entrepreneurship is a central driver of economic renewal and change, and that institutions affect both the supply and direction of entrepreneurship. While local institutions always develop and operate against the backdrop of national institutional frameworks, in particular in non-federal states, our review shows that there is plenty of room for local initiatives and policies to influence the entrepreneurial climate locally. This pertains to both formal (e.g., taxes, regulations and stringency of enforcement) and informal (e.g., attitudes and social legitimacy) institutions. We further argue that the local institutional environment is essential in any local policy aimed to foster productive (high-impact) entrepreneurship. Favorable local institutions not only increase the odds that a region develops or manage to attract entrepreneurial incumbents, but also the odds that a region reaps the full potential of hosting entrepreneurial and knowledge-intensive activities.

“…As with other types of entrepreneurship, the evasive activities may be both productive and unproductive (Boettke and Coyne 2009). When evasive entrepreneurs sidestep regulations and create contracts and patterns of behavior to overcome institutional impediments, these entrepreneurs may cause a positive shift in the production possibility frontier (PPF).…”

“…Sin embargo la gran mayoría de estudios se han ido realizando en países desarrollados con estructuras financieras, políticas y educativas bien establecidas, convirtiéndose entonces en herramientas no válidas para contextos menos desarrollados. De esta manera, aflora la importancia de crear planes de fomento del emprendimiento ad hoc, para que cada solución se adapte al territorio y a sus características concretas (Boettke & Coyne, 2009). La importancia del territorio es tal que, incluso dentro del conjunto de países en desarrollo, no se pueden generalizar recetas exitosas ya que un país puede tener restricciones concretas que otros no tengan (Henrekson & Stenkula, 2010).…”

“…Generalizar dichas recetas puede ser contraproducente y engañoso (Lundström & Stevenson, 2002;Rodrik, 2007;Boettke & Coyne, 2009). …”

Section: Políticas De Emprendimiento: Revisión De La Literaturaunclassified

“…La literatura afirma que las políticas de fomento del emprendimiento no responden a una receta universal que pueda aplicarse de igual forma en todos los territorios (Lundström & Stevenson, 2002;Acs & Szerb, 2007;Rodrik, 2007;Schott & Jensen, 2008;Boettke & Coyne, 2009;Henrekson & Stenkula, 2010). Cada territorio se desarrolla en unas circunstancias concretas que afectan directa o indirectamente a la actividad emprendedora.…”
