Tipu, Syed Awais Ahmad. "The Cognitive Side of Entrepreneurial Ethics: What Do We Still Need to Know?" Journal of Enterprising Culture 23, no. 01 (March 2015): 117–37. http://dx.doi.org/10.1142/s0218495815710016.
Full textAbstract:
The paper aims to review the current state of the knowledge in an attempt to renew the interest in studying cognitive side of entrepreneurial ethics. The paper explores how the two streams of the literature — entrepreneurial cognition and entrepreneurial ethics — can possibly be integrated to guide future research. It also reviews the literature at the intersection of entrepreneurial cognitions and ethics. In doing so, the paper draws upon the extant literature to propose a set of questions for future research. Given the ethical implications of entrepreneurial behavior, this paper calls for future interdisciplinary work among entrepreneurial cognition scholars and business ethicists. The extant literature has generally focused on exploring the linkages among entrepreneurial cognitions, moral awareness, and moral judgment. It appears that relatively sparse attention is paid to explore the underlying cognitive patterns of an entrepreneur's actions pertaining to unethical business practices. This gap in the literature at the intersection of cognitions and ethics holds significant potential for future research. The proposed questions for future research include the following: How do cognitive biases and heuristics make an entrepreneur more susceptible to immoral judgment and reasoning? Which of the cognitive schemas is more likely to enhance moral intentions of entrepreneurs? How does distributed cognition shape socially responsible entrepreneurial behavior? Do entrepreneurs prefer rule-based or cost/benefit-based reasoning approach while making moral judgment? Which of the cognitive dimensions of socially responsible behavior — utilitarianism, just, and rights — is more common among entrepreneurs in developed countries in comparison to the entrepreneurs in developing and emerging economies? Do immigrant and/or ethnic entrepreneurs experience identity ambiguity and how does it relate to their unethical actions? How does the level of motivation affect an entrepreneur's reliance on heuristics rather than employing a systematic response to process information for ethical judgment? The proposed questions potentially offer insights into the way in which entrepreneurial cognitions and entrepreneurial ethics are interconnected. Entrepreneurship scholars may enrich their future research efforts by exploring how might insights from entrepreneurial ethics better inform the theoretical developments of entrepreneurial cognitions.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of LEM participation on moral identity. Lateral exchange markets (LEMs) enable ordinary people to monetize idle personal resources such as cars, homes, gadgets and skills. Despite its champions portraying actors in these exchange as moral citizens of society, recent findings suggest that egoistic motives drive participation. A salient moral identity motivates behaviors that show social sensitivity to others and enable cooperative actions. Given that platform-providing firms rely on users’ cooperative behaviors to facilitate lateral exchange, understanding factors that affect moral identity can have important implications for the success of such business models. Design/methodology/approach In this research, the authors move away from the ideological discourse behind actors’ motivations, to provide a pragmatic explanation of how participation erodes moral identity. The authors apply a social cognitive framework to examine how the environment in LEMs impacts behaviors and personal factors in a recursive fashion. Findings Across two studies, findings reveal that prolonged participation in lateral exchange diminishes the centrality of moral identity to the working self-concept. Moreover, the results show that keeping puritan peers moral has positive business outcomes. This research also discerns a boundary condition that determines when peers remain consistent with their moral compasses. Specifically, when engagement is perceived as effortful, the behavior becomes an informative input in the inference of one’s moral disposition reinforcing moral identity. Originality/value Marketers can use this research to design business models in ways that mitigate the decay of moral identity.

Full textAbstract:
The development of halal food industries has created more business opportunities for Muslim entrepreneurs. These Muslim entrepreneurs must ensure that only halal ingredients are used in their food products. Although there is a growing literature on halal management and consumerism, empirical studies on certified bakery ingredients and online entrepreneurs are limited. To fill this gap, factors influencing the intention to use halal-certified bakery ingredients among online entrepreneurs are being investigated. The data was obtained from 165 online Muslim entrepreneurs in Malaysia using convenience sampling. The adopted questionnaire was used as a research instrument, grounded by the extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The TPB model was extended in this study by including additional components to measure self-identity, moral obligation, and barriers. The results obtained based on the path analysis showed that the attitude and subjective norm of the entrepreneurs are both statistically significant in influencing the intention to use halal-certified bakery ingredients. In contrast, entrepreneurs' perceived behaviour control, self-identity, and moral obligations had no significant influence on the intention to use halal-certified bakery ingredients

Full textAbstract:
The manufacturing industry has an important role on the regional economic’s development. Nevertheless, economics development cannot be separated from environmental degradation issue. In Margoyoso Sub-district, Pati, Central Java, the disposal of tapioca flour wastewater results in environmental pollution and this situation rises a question on the awareness of entrepreneurs. The purpose of this study is to identify the moral attitude of tapioca entrepreneurs to the environment and to explore the efforts made by entrepreneurs to reduce the negative impacts of the wastewater. This research is conducted by qualitative method, using interview, observation, and documentation for data collection. The results of this study indicate that the moral attitude of tapioca entrepreneurs is classified as socionomous. This implies that the awareness of the entrepreneurs is at low level because the tapioca entrepreneurs run their business by following what other entrepreneurs usually do. Finally, the application of an appropriate eco-commitment concept, namely continuance commitment, is required in order to support the objectives of the business in realizing environmental sustainability for their business.

Full textAbstract:
Entrepreneurs are potentially powerful solvers of challenges faced by sustainable development, especially when they combine narrower technological expertise with wider social motivations. Yet, to what degree trade-offs exist between different motivations is still largely unresolved. In this paper, we examine the choices made by potential entrepreneurs when aligning their prospective ventures with their personal attitudes and social norms. Extending the theory of planned behavior and—as a novel experimental technique in our context—drawing on a choice-based conjoint analysis with 4155 data points, we identify predictors for sustainable entrepreneurship intentions based on structural equation modelling. We find that entrepreneurial and sustainability-related attitudes as well as entrepreneurial norms are critical when it comes to the decision as to whether or not to pursue a sustainable venture, and that the link between attitudes and intentions is amplified by a positive moderation effect of entrepreneurial and sustainability-related attitudes, which supports identity coupling but refutes moral disengagement.

Full textAbstract:
Sociologists have shown that moral understandings of market exchanges can differ between historical periods and institutional settings, but they have paid less attention to how producers’ moral frameworks vary depending on their unequal positions within both markets and institutions. We use interviews and ethnographic observations to examine the vibrant market of research shops selling academic work to students around two of Uganda’s top universities. We identify three groups of researchers—Knowledge Producers, Entrepreneurs, and Educators—who construct different professional identities and moral justifications of their trade, and who orient their market action accordingly. We demonstrate that these identities and moral frameworks reflect an interplay between the institutional contexts and the social class positions that researchers occupy within this illicit market. Knowledge Producers and Entrepreneurs both experienced a sense of “fit” with their respective institutional cultures, but the former now see their work as compromising ideals of research, whereas the latter capitalize on what they view as a broken system. Educators, disadvantaged at both institutions, articulate a framework countering the dominant institutional cultures and sympathetic to underperforming students. This approach illuminates how institutional contexts and individual class positions within them influence producers’ moral frameworks, leading to differentiation of the market.

Full textAbstract:
New ventures, being heavily subjected to liabilities of newness, are seen to engage in legitimacy strategies to overcome these liabilities. Building on an adapted theoretical framework of organizational legitimacy, self-reported weekly diaries of twelve entrepreneurs were analysed to identify strategies used by new ventures to create legitimacy. New ventures appear to prefer pragmatically related strategies over moral and cognitive ones, and adopt malleability with respect to moral strategies. The novelty of the venture technology increases the focus on conformity strategies, whereas more established technologies use manipulative strategies to gain legitimacy. New ventures also appear to engage strongly in moral selection strategies in terms of goal formulation.

Full textAbstract:
The rise in the importance of nonstate actors in generating new norms in world politics has been documented by scholars, but the literature has focused predominantly on nonsecurity (“new”) issue areas. Conversely, although recent constructivist work in international relations has examined the security policies of states, typically it is the state that is doing the constructing of interests. I bridge these two literatures by examining the hard case of transnational civil society working through issue networks to teach state interests in security policy. I analyze the campaign by transnational civil society to generate an international norm prohibiting antipersonnel land mines and trace the effects of several techniques through which states can be said to be socialized. Through generating issues, networking, “grafting,” and using a transnational Socratic method to reverse burdens of proof, the campaign has stimulated systemic normative change through two processes: norm adoption through the conversion of persuaded moral entrepreneurs and emulation resulting from social pressures of identity.

Full textAbstract:
This paper provides an analysis of the relationship of dominance and resistance in the novel High Fidelity. The aim of the paper is to identify the elements of popular culture in the novel and thus determine the nature of possible relationships in a patriarchal, capitalist society. The theoretical framework used in the paper is Fiske’s theory of popular culture (2001) and the analysis is based on regarding the characters as representatives of dominant and resistant forces. Men and the upper class constitute categories which are dominant in the relationship with subordinate ones – women and the lower class. In addition, the protagonist Rob is the prototype of a man who is subordinate to himself, i.e. to his representation of ideal male traits he lacks, according to his own beliefs. The subordinate put up resistance in different ways. Laura is a successful business woman who possesses a strong character, which places her into a better position than that of Rob. The protagonist uses music as one of the ways to express his resistance. As a lower class member (i.e. a poor entrepreneur), the protagonist opposes upper class members (wealthy entrepreneurs) in that he possesses moral principles which they often lack.

Introduction: Since the beginning of the last decade, the number and scope of studies on the impact of the Fourth Industrial Revolution have intensified, particularly in Artificial Intelligence, Automation, Robotics, and other related disciplines regarding the future of work. These studies discuss relevant changes in the employment and entrepreneurship ecosystem with significant socioeconomic and cultural implications. As a result of the global pandemic of COVID-19, it is essential to review the transformations that will further affect that ecosystem. Objective: This article aims to identify the implications of the confluence of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, COVID-19, and Climate Change in terms of the challenges and opportunities faced by entrepreneurs during this remarkable global metamorphosis. Methodology: In our exploration, we use a complexity science perspective to offer a framework for the management of Solidarity Entrepreneurship. Results: We developed a framework to identify the elements that, under the new global context, must be considered to provide alternative perspectives of entrepreneurship oriented to preventing or mitigating the effects caused by the confluence described above. Conclusions: Our proposal recommends an entrepreneur’s skill set that considers the ethical, moral, regulatory, and other innovation and cognitive concerns to optimize entrepreneurial ventures focused on the requirements of the pressing global scenario in progress.

Full textAbstract:
In economic history, succession is considered as one of the factors of a long-term commercial activity. In the 19th century, first of all, this is succession in the work of the family firm. Exploring the history of entrepreneurship in this sense would mean studying, first, the succession of economic activity (including intergenerational transfers of assets), and, second, the institutional succession, including the rules and regulations procedures in management of industrial and commercial enterprises, based on moral principles. The intergenerational transition of the family business was not only based on the legislation requirements and depended on the composition of the family, it also took into account ethical norms aimed at stabilizing the merchant family’s entrepreneurial activity. The article focuses on different aspects of succession in the merchant family’s activity, including the influence of the factor of the family business longevity on formation of entrepreneurs’ self-identity, an understanding the importance of the topographic factor in business relations with constant customers. It also analyzes intra-family agreements, which were created to ensure the stability of the family business, the reflection of ideas about the continuity of business in the texts of wills is also considered. Great importance was attached to the institutional consolidation and strengthening of the family firms’ property assets. Drawing upon materials from archival sources, the article examines the histories of large Moscow firms of the Bakhrushins, Khludovs, Tretyakovs, Nosovs, Naydenovs, Samgins, Zimins, which activities in industry and trade numbered from four to six generations over a century.

Abstract This research discusses the role of social entrepreneurship as an important feature of the moral economy, i.e., a socially responsible business practice. Developing countries, e.g., Georgia, a post-Soviet country, differ from those in the West in this aspect. The author aims to identify peculiarities of social entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility of Georgian businesses. Desk research provides conceptual analysis of the existing quantitative and qualitative studies, based on prominent scientists’ works in economics and entrepreneurship. A “moral economy” understands business activities as “social services.” Social responsibility is a business’s moral framework, suggesting a company’s obligation to generate social benefit. Social entrepreneurship combines the best practices from the nonprofit and for-profit activities to tackle social needs poorly addressed by businesses and governments. Social entrepreneurship is a relatively new phenomenon in post-Soviet countries, where nongovernmental organizations help in solving many social problems, but their efforts are typically insufficient. Entrepreneurs must find a balance between a company’s success, employees’ needs, and environmental and social stability. These three priorities form the foundations of corporate social responsibility. Economic history provides many examples of moral standards driving the stability of a socio-economic system and profitability of companies with macroeconomic and microeconomic positive impacts. Companies operating in Georgia spend their funds on social projects and charity; moreover, such socially oriented activities are sometimes chaotic. Companies need to implement social responsibility projects as part of their business plans. Strengthening corporate social responsibility could thus support development of social entrepreneurship.

Introduction. In accordance with the Bucharest Declaration of Ethical Values and Principles of Higher Education (2004), modern universities cannot be considered only as scientific and technical “factories” in isolation from values and ethical norms. In accordance with their mission in society, they should “contribute in every possible way to the establishment and inculcation of the highest moral standards”.In this article, the problem of training future government and municipal employees in the Russian universities of the country is actualised based on the analysis of the research results of their ethical attitudes in order to indirectly assess the effectiveness of anti-corruption training of students of specialised educational programmes in the areas of “Government and Municipal Administration” and “Law”.Aim. The present empirical study aimed to identify the ethical attitudes of future officials in comparison with future entrepreneurs, as well as with the employees of commercial companies and government officials.Methodology and research methods. The authors conducted an online research. The research involved 874 people. The main test sample (134 students) consisted of two groups: students of the speciality “Government and Municipal Administration” and “Law” (70 people), and students of business education programmes (64 people). The background sample consisted of the government and municipal employees (39.0% of the total sample) and the employees of commercial companies (36.5%), as well as the representatives of NGOs (6.8%). In the course of a comparative study, using the questionnaire “Moral Views (Amoralism)-2” by E. A. Bulgakova, and the scale of the “Dark Future” by Z. Zalessky, the authors tested the hypothesis on the samples of future officials and future business representatives. The tested hypothesis was based on some works of foreign authors and consisted of the fact that future Russian entrepreneurs were expected to have a higher degree of relativism (than future officials), supporting personal moral standards and rejecting universal moral principles.Results. The tested hypothesis was not confirmed by the research results. Compared to future entrepreneurs, future officials are significantly more likely to justify the act of appropriation, deception due to omissions, and revenge within the law. Future officials turned out to have higher indicators on the scales of cynicism, aggressiveness and hostility than students in the field of business education. In addition, future civil servants have more uncertainty about whether they will be able to take place in life, fears about possible collisions with life crises and difficulties, as well as anxiety for their future. Existing university ethics training programmes often only strengthen relativistic views and form deviant behaviour in the future.Scientific novelty. The scientific novelty of the study consists in the fact that the authors carried out theoretical analysis and empirical research, which consisted in the study of ethical attitudes among the representatives of two professional groups.Practical significance. As part of the development of training programmes, it is advisable to increase the emphasis on structurally mature ethical attitudes of professionals, especially state and municipal employees.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose This paper examines the case of Nashoba, a Tennessee-based social enterprise founded in 1824 by Scottish immigrant Frances Wright. The Nashoba venture intended to diminish the institution of slavery in the USA through entrepreneurial activity over its five years of operation. Design/methodology/approach This study methodology entailed mining primary source data from Wright’s letters; communications with her cofounders and contemporaries; and documentations of enterprise operations. The authors examined these data using social enterprise theory with a focus on personal identity and time-laden empirical aspects not captured by traditional methodologies. Findings The social enterprise concept of a single, self-sustaining model generating more than one denomination of value in a blended form has a deeper history than the literature acknowledges. As an entrepreneur, Wright made strategic decisions in a context of supply-side and demand-side threats to the venture. The social enterprise engaged injustice by going beyond market and state contexts to generate impact in the realms of institutions and non-excludable public goods. Research limitations/implications This study generates two formal implications for the development of new research questions in social enterprise studies. The first implication addresses the relation between social entrepreneurs and their constituencies. The second implication pertains to the effects of macro-level education, awareness and politics on social enterprise performance and impact. The implications herald new insights in social enterprise, such as the limits of moral conviction and the importance of social disruption. Originality/value This paper broadens the current understanding of how social enterprises redress unjust and unethical institutions. It also contributes new insights into social enterprise launch and growth based on shared values within communities and coordinated strategic intentions across communities.

Fighting and the threat of occupation are forcing businesses to move to safer regions. This study aims to identify the decision-making determinants, challenges and strategies of relocation and recovery in a new location related to operations and team. For this purpose, semi-structured and narrative interviews published on Internet resources with representatives of enterprises relocated to safer regions of Ukraine and local authorities were analyzed. The final sample is 80 enterprises. The study found that the main criteria for choosing a new location (after safety), are convenient logistics and the availability of a relevant site for locating production. When preparing for a move and during the move, the main problems are danger to life, organizing transport and dismantling/loading equipment. From a moral and psychological point of view, the main issue is to persuade employees to relocate. As a result, the biggest challenge when restarting a business in a new location was creating a team in the absence of local workers with relevant skills. As for business strategies in the new conditions, the main trend is this: large companies are introducing innovative approaches to organizing production and management, medium and small enterprises are changing their product range or activity profile, adapting to the needs of wartime and/or the host region. The study revealed the positive effects of relocating businesses on the economy and infrastructure of host communities. Moreover, there is reason to argue that the relocation of a large number of industrial enterprises to the non-industrial western regions of Ukraine due to the war is changing the economic map of Ukraine. After the war, the Ukrainian entrepreneur plans to restore his native region, while the enterprise opened in a new location will continue to operate as a division. These findings should be taken into account by the government when planning post-war recovery. Additionally, in the current climate of global uncertainty about the progress of the war, governments and businesses must develop contingency plans that include nudge policies for their employees.

Social entrepreneurs are related to the issues of social justice and fairness to the society taking the ventures in the public interest. This type of entrepreneurship is related to the promoting the activities on low profit or no profit to benefit the weaker sections in such a way that they are can live a better life. The leadership and decision-making have to be in the interest of society and for the future too. The world of social entrepreneurship is created by the values of self efficiency with the faith to build an honest world of hope and respect...the basic qualities guiding the social entrepreneurial behaviour to form the business empires depends on the quality of social and moral judgement supported by the social norms. The society in turn supports people who work for the benefit of human survival so that the future is built on the values of sustainability and trust and hope. The generations to come, need the resources for the growth of the society and civilisation as a whole. They should use them in such a way that they are able to build the source for sustainable management of resources and for the larger benefit of the society. The basic aim of the paper is to analyse the issues and trends associated with the social fairness and to frame a strategic base for the better design of the social entrepreneurship variables. The basic objective of this paper is to identify and build the entrepreneurship abilities that shape the social entrepreneurial behaviour.

Several North American Sikh millennials are creating online values-based fashion enterprises that seek to encourage creative expression, self-determined representation, gender equality, and ethical purchasing, while steeped in the free market economy. Exploring the innovative ways young Sikhs of the diaspora express their values and moral positions in the socio-economic sphere, one finds many fashionistas, artists, and activists who are committed to making Sikh dress accessible and acceptable in the fashion industry. Referred to as “Sikh chic”, the five outwards signs of the Khalsa Sikh—the “5 ks”—are frequently used as central motifs for these businesses (Reddy 2016). At the same time, many young Sikh fashion entrepreneurs are designing these items referencing contemporary style and social trends, from zero-waste bamboo kangas to hipster stylized turbans. Young Sikh women are challenging mainstream representations of a masculine Sikh identity by creating designs dedicated to celebrating Khalsa Sikh females. Drawing on data collected through digital and in-person ethnographic research including one-on-one interviews, participant observation, and social media, as well as fashion magazines and newsprint, I explore the complexities of this phenomenon as demonstrated by two Canadian-based Sikh fashion brands, Kundan Paaras and TrendySingh, and one Canadian-based Sikh female artist, Jasmin Kaur.

Full textAbstract:
This article determines that in today’s conditions of doing business, the increase of profits is one of the main reasons for the emergence of social challenges, such as social insecurity, low level of solvency of most people, lack of high moral values. Today, the most important is building business relations, primarily, on the basis of implementation of moral and ethical principles that can contribute to the general welfare. So, the subject of research is the ways to ensure optimal conditions for growth of small and medium business with the using of world experience, as well as studying the main directions that realized by successful states for support of entrepreneurship. Methodology. The conducted research shows that the level of corruption in Ukraine, imperfect legislation, and volatile tax system with significant load negatively affect the activities of small and medium-sized businesses. However, availability of economic stability, favourable tax and lending rates, tangible government support testify that there are optimal terms for doing business in such countries as the USA and member states of the EU. Content analysis is carried out on materials of works of foreign and domestic scientists using Ukrainian official and statistic data provided by experts. In the process of preparing the article, the general scientific methods of research are used: logical analysis, observation, formalization, synthesis, abstraction. The goal of the study is to analyse the main peculiarities of start-up and doing of entrepreneurial activity in the format of individual world countries, which give an optimal environment and favourable conditions of development of small and medium business and are interested in attracting foreign entrepreneurs for building their business, as well as identify basic mechanisms used by governments of these countries to support equilibrium in the spatial market. Conclusions. So, the analysis of main features of launch and implementation of business in the cut of individual world countries showed that the essential task of the present is an introduction of moral laws and ethical principles into business space, which is able to ensure the optimal development of social relations. Also, it is determined that start of any business for an entrepreneur is connected, first of all, with the choice of the most attractive kind of activity, taking into account which goods and services are currently in demand by consumers. In addition, it has been discovered that today the best territory in the world for conducting business is the USA – with its powerful domestic market, honest legislation, and state support. For Ukrainians, it is appropriate to create a business in neighbouring states members of the EU, whose governments actively promote the optimal terms for foreign entrepreneurs to open own business, separately, in Poland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic. At the same time, it has been investigated that corruption is the main reason that hampers the development of civilized business relations in Ukraine. Imperfect legislation and unstable tax system with a significant load negatively affect the activities of small and medium companies, complicating conditions for obtaining loans, increasing risks, primarily as a result of the growth of inflation. Thus, significant government support, especially loyal attitude towards small and medium businesses under the simple conditions of attracting investors, provides opportunities for effective business development in the EU.

The authors present the results of the study of motives, as well as value and moral grounds determining the socially responsible activities of commercial and non-profit organizations. The research is based on the hypothesis that the social responsibility of organizations is determined not only by economic and sociological factors (fixed concepts of "integrity", "voluntary contribution", "social investment", "consideration of public expectations", "partnership", "voluntary environmental reporting", etc.), but also moral and ethical attitudes, subjects orientation to moral values. These attitudes and orientations and practical experience related to them are objectified in the language with the help of such concepts as "charity", "unselfishness", "help", "care", etc. In order to test the hypothesis, the researches conducted an empirical study within which 15 experts were identified and interviewed. Data collection was carried out by the method of in-depth semi-structured interview with the subsequent analysis of the opinions expressed by experts. The qualitative research methods made it possible to identify and analyze the semantic content of ideas about social responsibility of representatives of business organizations and NGOs in Volgograd. The study showed the importance of not only economic opportunities for socially responsible activities, but also of moral grounds, because even in tight financial conditions the moral need to provide assistance and care encourage entrepreneurs to seek resources and opportunities for these purposes. The authors conclude that the initiative participation of business in solving social problems of the region (regardless of the declared goals and chosen forms) is determined by internal imperatives: personal value "coordinate system" and moral and ethical attitudes of business leaders and NGOs. According to the results of the study, socially responsible activity of business organizations and NGOs in Volgograd is often determined by personal relationships between people, rather than institutional ties. It is shown that the restriction of the expansion and institutionalization of socially responsible practices of business organizations in the region is due to their lack of financial resources. However, this does not prevent representatives of Volgograd business to respond to requests for help, but also to initiate helping behavior. The study showed that in conditions of lack of financial resources, moral and ethical factors (duty, care, loyalty, gratitude, unselfishness, justice, empathy, love for people) play a decisive role in motivating helping behavior and charity. The recommendations formulated by the results of the research are designed to contribute to the formation in the regional community of the attitude to socially responsible behavior as a natural component of human life. This will allow wider use of moral arguments and non-material incentives to promote and improve the efficiency of socially responsible activities of companies in our region.

Russian firms suffer from the negative country of origin effect and legitimacy shortage. This paper has the aim to reveal factors for Russian firms to focus on while build legitimacy both at home and abroad. To identify the existing research directions, the 48 articles applying legitimacy and Russian focus from journals in management and business for all years were analyzed, using both the bibliometric analysis and manual in-depth study of papers. Based on the specificity of the Russian context and literature analysis about the factors of the legitimacy concept, we develop a theoretical framework that is supported by a set of propositions about possible legitimization strategies of Russian firms. Three main pillars of the organizational legitimacy construct such as moral, pragmatic and cognitive, which are accepted as the most influential ones, were introduced and proposed for Russian firms how to gain them at home and abroad. This paper has the value for both theory and practice. It contributes to the legitimacy literature, responding to many calls to study the microfoundations of the organizational legitimacy and developing the holistic theoretical framework within the Russian context. The findings also are of practical importance for managers and entrepreneurs whose attention is paid to the effective strategic management and legitimacy building both at home and abroad.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that influence the innovation decisions of Emirati women-owned small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Design/methodology/approach This study uses a two-phased approach. In the first phase, empirical research on 50 Emirati female entrepreneurs is conducted to discover the extent of innovation in their ventures. In the second phase, the study uses an analytical hierarchy process (AHP) to prioritize factors considered important in facilitating business innovation among SMEs. The AHP model is developed with 9 criteria and 25 sub-criteria based on the previous literature. Face-to-face interviews are conducted with Emirati female entrepreneurs operating nascent (n = 10), start-up (n = 10) and established innovative (n = 10) businesses to collect data for the AHP study. The data collected are interpreted and a priority vector is assigned to each criterion and sub-criterion. Findings Female SME owners prioritize government policies, research and development, innovation strategy and skill development as the main criteria that influence their innovation decisions. Family support, access to external financing, social networks and the allocation of funds are the main sub-criteria affecting their decisions to be innovative. Furthermore, respondents who are in the nascent business stage consider family motivation as the greatest influence on initiating new ideas through financial and moral support. Among all respondents, the nascent business owners rank skill development the highest because they are still in the initial stages of their business journeys, and thus, obtaining these skills could help them increase innovation and success in their ventures. However, respondents in the established stage rank innovation strategy the highest. Research limitations/implications The study results can help policymakers and women’s associations, such as businesswomen councils, identify the specific inhibitors and facilitators linked to innovation and, thereby, help develop various effective policies to promote innovation among Emirati women-owned SMEs. Originality/value The study is one attempt to facilitate innovation among Emirati women-owned SMEs through its efforts to discover the determinants of innovation efforts at nascent, start-up and established business stages as defined by the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (2012). The study can help Emirati women-owned SMEs understand the critical factors influencing innovation and can encourage them to incorporate innovative characteristics for business growth and resilience. Furthermore, the study can provide insights for policymakers, financial institutions and non-governmental organizations on factors hindering innovation among Emirati women-owned SMEs, which may serve as a tool for creating resilience among female entrepreneurs.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this paper is to critically analyse the policymaking process of the Moral and National Education (MNE) curriculum in Hong Kong by employing Kingdon’s Multiple Streams Framework. The aim of the paper is threefold. First, it will describe the policy process of the national education curriculum policy as a foundation for the analysis. Second, the author will critically evaluate and apply Kingdon’s MSF to examine the policymaking process, both to analyse how such policy came to be constructed as a problem and to consider the proposed policy solutions, as well as the surrounding political forces. Third, the analysis will identify the possible coupling of these lines of thought and the notions of “policy entrepreneurs” and “policy windows.”The MNE policy provided a good example of how a policy problem is constructed in various policy contexts, as well as how the solution is matched to the problem. Although the policy outcome is not entirely predictable, Kingdon’s framework is excellent for explaining the likely outcomes.This paper contributes to the wider policy literature by bridging the East-West gap in policy analysis. It provides a better understanding of the policymaking process in Asian countries, and it should also prove useful to both education policy scholars and policymakers. Finally it suggests further research is needed on how social media affects each of Kingdon’s streams in Hong Kong.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the study is to identify the specific features of the American entrepreneur’s image in J. Belfort’s novel “The Wolf of Wall Street” and their significant differences from the characteristic features of this image in the works of American literature of an earlier period. The paper examines the literary image of an entrepreneur created by J. Belfort based on an autobiographical narrative using his personal experience in stock market activities. The study investigates the change in the value paradigm in the personality and character of the entrepreneur in comparison with the main characteristics of this image created in the works of W. Bradford and B. Franklin. The scientific novelty of the study lies in discovering radical changes in the image of the 21st-century American entrepreneur in comparison with the ideal that was formed in American culture in the 17th and 18th centuries. As a result of the study, it was found that the image of an entrepreneur in J. Belfort’s novel has undergone significant changes compared to the works of early American literature. There is a significant contradiction between the moral and value attitudes created in the works of W. Bradford and B. Franklin and the modern image of the American entrepreneur depicted in the novel under consideration.

The aim of the study is to find out the perception of the concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) by the segment of small and medium-sized enterprises in the Czech Republic. In connection with the objectives of the study, a questionnaire survey was carried out on a sample of 419 respondents – business owners and managers. The data were collected from September 2019 to January 2020. χ2 and Z-score were used to assess the hypotheses. It was found that there were statistical differences in the perception of some aspects of the positive impact of the introduction of the CSR concept in case of monitoring responses based on the geographic scope of the business. The results showed that although the manager should take into account the ethical and moral implications of his decisions, less than half of the respondents are familiar with the concept of CSR and enforce it in their management practice and ultimately managers cannot identify positive benefits from CSR implementation – it declares positive answers whose values oscillate around 30%. The findings show that there are no statistically significant differences in the answers of managers depending on the size of the company - this proves that micro, small and medium enterprises, respectively their managers do not differ in their attitudes to the topic of CSR. The final effect of the paper is to show the perception of the concept of CSR of entrepreneurs - respondents in the Czech Republic.

Full textAbstract:
This study explores the intersection of religion and entrepreneurship, examining how these domains converge to shape societal and economic landscapes. Religion, with its enduring values and ethical frameworks, profoundly influences entrepreneurial activities, serving as a moral compass and source of inspiration for many entrepreneurs. Conversely, entrepreneurship is often perceived as a means of fulfilling religious obligations, such as charity and community service. Recent research has increasingly highlighted the significant role of religion in guiding ethical decision-making, influencing business practices, and contributing to entrepreneurial success. This bibliometric review provides a comprehensive analysis of global research trends in this field, focusing on 1,387 articles published since 1966. The study employs VOSviewer software to map existing literature and identify key themes, regional focal points, and influential studies. Findings reveal that most research originates from economically developed countries, with the United States (US), the United Kingdom (UK), Indonesia, and Malaysia leading in publication output. This distribution underscores the importance of religion in shaping entrepreneurial activities across diverse cultural and economic contexts. Despite the growing academic interest, the study acknowledges certain limitations, including the reliance on the Scopus database, which may exclude relevant works from other sources. Additionally, the focus on publications from 1966 onward may overlook earlier foundational literature. This review contributes to a deeper understanding of how religion and entrepreneurship intersect, offering insights into emerging themes, gaps in the literature, and potential directions for future research.

Full textAbstract:
Over the past thirty years, Kazakhstan has seen significant changes in the political, economic, and socio–cultural spheres, which have affected the lives of its citizens and their everyday reality. However, the values and social attitudes of modern society often do not meet the requirements of objective reality, which gives rise to the need to search for new guidelines. In this context, the formation of patriotism and the revival of moral ideals become important. An appeal to the rich historical heritage allows us to identify the fundamental values that ensured the survival and development of civilization in the past. In this regard, the authors set themselves the goal of examining the traditions of charity, including value orientations, motives for action, forms of self–organization, and aspects of spiritual culture. The traditions of charity operate in the discursive space of history; the authors consider its ideological foundations, socio–cultural dynamics, and practical manifestations. These traditions not only represent an important aspect of the historical process, but also reflect profound changes in society, contributing to the formation of the social and cultural context in which they exist. The study shows that despite the centuries–old history of charity, it remains an understudied socio–cultural phenomenon in the history of Kazakhstan. The authors pay special attention to charitable traditions in the field of education. Charitable activities during this period were actively supported by the state, the entire Kazakh population, private entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and the intellectual elite.

Purpose This study aims to help students to relate their theoretical knowledge in managing change in a crisis. It is more relevant in today’s pandemic situation and could be a morale booster for many entrepreneurs who are struggling to sustain. Design/methodology/approach It is based on managing real-life change situation in organization, and it is presented in narrative form. Findings CERA India could successfully transform and sustain in Covid-19 pandemic situation with an inclusive approach, without losing their identity. Research limitations/implications This study is based on consulting experience and success story of one organization in pandemic situation. Important message is in a crisis, organizations can sustain partnering with people. But, this depends on the prevalent culture of the organization. Also, other organizations before replication need to ascertain the problem of their brand dilution, for shifting their focus to other product lines. Practical implications This story can be used in organizational change management classes, and students may be assigned to document their lessons. At the end of the story, some possible areas of investigation for students are listed for getting appropriate direction. Social implications In this pandemic situation, this study is socially relevant, as it shows how organizations can sustain with a human face. Originality/value This study is original and based on real-life experience in managing organizational transformation in a crisis situation. The name of the organization is imaginary, as organization did not like their name in public. This is one reason of not using their data for tabular presentation.

Full textAbstract:
By utilizing manipulative tactics, such as persuasion techniques and strategies through social media sites, moral entrepreneurs can maintain and/or increase their scope of influence. In this article, we propose another tactic utilized by moral entrepreneurs, a concept we refer to as shifting morals. The complexity of moral entrepreneurs’ life experiences provides them with an endless set of social and moral norms that they can use to tweak their own ideals to encompass other moral framing networks to gain more followers and thus increase their influence. We examine theoretical literature, while also providing examples that resulted from content analysis from media websites to illustrate our proposed concept of shifting morals. We conclude that the shifting morals tactic is another tool moral entrepreneurs use to increase their influence in society to enact social change.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to consider if self-employed entrepreneurs, a class of individuals who require enforceable property rights to create new firms and ideas that could increase a society’s material living standards, constitute an individual property rights enforcement mechanism. Design/methodology/approach With data from the General Social Survey, the authors estimate the parameters of mixed-effects categorical regression specifications to measure the effect of self-employment on confidence in the US Supreme Court, raising and donating funds for social or political activities, and on trying to persuade others to share political views. Findings The findings suggest that self-employed entrepreneurs are one of the guarantors of a constitutional democracy based on an ethic of individual property rights, and public policies that are pro-entrepreneurship help mitigate the risk of constitutional failure, and maximize society’s material living and ethical standards. Research limitations/implications The results are based on cross-sectional data, which do not account for dynamic changes in preferences. Practical implications The findings suggest that self-employed entrepreneurs are a enforcement mechanism and a guarantor of an ethic of private property rights necessary for the ongoing success and viability of a constitutional democracy based on individual property rights. Social implications The findings suggest that as entrepreneurs constitute an enforcement mechanism for individual property rights, to the extent that entrepreneurialism also cultivates individual virtue entrepreneurs also serve as guarantors of a moral and ethical society that is based on virtue, which results in a constitutional democracy with high material living and ethical/moral standards. Originality/value This paper is among the first to empirically test whether entrepreneurs are an enforcement mechanism for individual property rights.

Findings The findings suggest that cultural and creative entrepreneurs do develop an entrepreneurial identity and incorporate their cultural and creative identity into that entrepreneurial identity whereas self-reflection is a key driver in the development. Practical implications Cultural and creative entrepreneurs are a key driver of economic development. Hence, it is important to generate a more detailed understanding of their entrepreneurial mind-set and their behaviour. Originality/value The study suggests that cultural and creative entrepreneurs actively develop an entrepreneurial identity and that self-reflection, communication with other entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial experience are the main drivers of their identity development. Nevertheless, their cultural and creative identity does have an influence on their entrepreneurial identity. In addition, the study demonstrates how such entrepreneurs develop their identity.

This publication examines the determinants and motives of socially responsible business activities based on the works of Western experts. Socially responsible business activity is determined by the influence of determinants of the external environment, which can be classified as economic, legal, social, or instrumental and institutional. They are strategic in terms of business goals and results. A different angle of detail of external determinants allows us to identify such important components as the state of the social environment; the presence and characteristics of ethical leadership; integration of social responsibility values into the culture of the organization; a competitive business environment combined with conscious consumers that creates value for companies ' reputation. Studying the external and internal motivation of socially responsible business activities, Western researchers have found that large companies are more motivated by external incentives, while small and medium-sized businesses rely on internal motives. Among them, the most significant are the values and beliefs of managers (owners), their conscience, and their understanding of their duty to society. In our opinion, internal motivation is based on such determinants as a system of values formed in an ethical direction; a developed conscience; and the desire for personal development. Internal and external motivations of socially responsible business activities are correlated, which logically follows from the social conditionality of human behavior. The moral climate in society and the institutional conditions that support socially responsible business behavior are more important external determinants that strengthen the internal motivation of management for appropriate behavior. To find effective economic incentives to promote socially responsible business activities, both organizations and the governments of countries must use knowledge about the specifics of its motivation among management and entrepreneurs. The perspective of our research is systematic, conceptually based empirical studies of the peculiarities of motivation of socially responsible activity of Ukrainian business in which the first step is to study the experience of Western scientists.
