Enterprise, Deprivation and Social Exclusion
«
'This book critically examines the extremely popular arguments that entrepreneurialism and the policies that promote are a solution for deprivation and social marginalization and other economic development problems. The authors examine the limits of entrepreneurship and market-based solutions for solving the social inequities of the day.' Nancy Jurik, Arizona State University, USA and author of Bootstrap Dreams
'I believe this book is timely and equipped with many useful insights into the practical lessons to be learnt about how enterprises such as ethnic minority businesses, women enterprises, social enterprises, and other enterprises in deprived and inner cities should be encouraged. It also provides a better understanding of which policy is working and which is not. As such, this book is a much recommended read for policy makers, practitioners, and researchers.’ – Ignatius Ekanem, Dept. Business and Management, Middlesex University, London, in Environment and Planning, Vol. 44 (2013)
