Entrepreneurship and Economic Progress by Randall Holcombe Pdf

Entrepreneurship is the engine of economic progress, but mainstream economic models of economic growth tend to leave out the entrepreneurial elements of the economy. This new book from Randall Holcombe begins by identifying areas in which evolutionary and Austrian approaches differ from the academic mainstream literature on economic growth, before moving on to distinguish growth from progress. The author then analyzes economic models of the firm based on the idea that it is entrepreneurship that drives economic progress. The book should prove to be a natural successor to recent Routledge books by Frederic Sautet and David Harper.

Foundations of Entrepreneurship and Economic Development by David A Harper Pdf

This well-written book is the first to deal with entrepreneurship in all its aspects. It considers the economic, psychological, political, legal and cultural dimensions of entrepreneurship from a market-process perspective. David A Harper has produced a volume that analyses why some people are quicker than others in discovering profit opportunities. Importantly, the book also covers the issue of how cultural value systems orient entrepreneurial vision and, in contrast to conventional wisdom, the book argues that individualist cultural values are not categorically superior to group oriented values in terms of their consequences for entrepreneurial discovery.

Freedom from Work by Daniel Fridman Pdf

“A refreshing and rigorous analysis of financial self-help that gets to the heart of identity formation in neoliberalism . . . sociology at its best.” —Peter Miller, London School of Economics In this era where dollar value signals moral worth, Daniel Fridman paints a vivid portrait of Americans and Argentinians seeking to transform themselves into people worthy of millions. Following groups who practice the advice from financial success bestsellers, Fridman illustrates how the neoliberal emphasis on responsibility, individualism, and entrepreneurship binds people together with the ropes of aspiration. Freedom from Work delves into a world of financial self-help in which books, seminars, and board games reject “get rich quick” formulas and instead suggest to participants that there is something fundamentally wrong with who they are, and that they must struggle to correct it. Fridman analyzes three groups who exercise principles from Rich Dad, Poor Dad by playing the board game Cashflow and investing in cash-generating assets with the goal of leaving the rat race of employment. Fridman shows that the global economic transformations of the last few decades have been accompanied by popular resources that transform the people trying to survive—and even thrive. “A gifted observer, Fridman’s ethnographic account uncovers a unique blend of morality and economics in self-help groups pursuing their dream of financial freedom. This book contributes to economic and cultural sociology but will also fascinate general readers.” —Viviana A. Zelizer, Lloyd Cotsen ’50 Professor of Sociology, Princeton University “A wonderful portrait of how financial technologies of the self work in modern culture.” —Marion Fourcade, University of California, Berkeley

Wealth Without a Job by Phil Laut,Andy Fuehl Pdf

Strategies for successful business ownership Job security has become a myth, no matter where you work. Alan Greenspan testified before the House Ways and Means Committee in February 2004 that there is a turnover rate of approximately 1 million jobs per month. Because of the turbulent job market, more and more people are concluding that entrepreneurship is the way to go. However, many jobholders view entrepreneurship as risky. Entrepreneurship isn’ t taught in schools and most entrepreneurs endure a baptism by fire before they taste success. This book shows you learn not only how to strike out on your own, but how to make your entrepreneurial dream a success. Phil Laut (Charlotte, NC), self-published Money Is My Friend in 1979 and sold 400,000 copies in 18 languages. Andy Fuehl (Phoenix, AZ) is a recognized teacher of business psychology. He has also worked for several Fortune 500 companies such as AT& T, Bell Labs, and Motorola. Mr. Fuehl went from unemployed to self-made millionaire in less than three years using the methods in this book.
