Empreendedorismo Feminino Sob a Perspectiva da Estratégia como Prática e Teoria Institucional

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to suggest a new theoretical perspective in studies on female entrepreneurship, more specifically, an analysis of the phenomenon from the perspective of Strategy as Practice and Institutional Theory. For that, a qualitative bibliographic research was carried out, in order to extract concepts that would make this analysis possible. A search was made on the CAPES Journals portal (CAFE / UFS) and on the Google Scholar platform, where 28 (twenty-eight) articles were selected from national and international, which helped the development of this study. As a result, it is highlighted that the analysis of female entrepreneurship under the lens of strategy as practice, brings the focus of observation to the strategist subject, thus contributing to the understanding of institutional practice, that is, an investigation that starts from the micro to the macro. This analysis is one of the main theoretical contributions of this study, strengthening a field of research still under construction. There is also a contribution to the field of Organizational Studies, because when understanding that entrepreneurship is a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary phenomenon, it gives rise to data that provide new views on the nature and reality of the phenomenon studied.
