dc.description.abstract | As the old English proverb states, ‘necessity is the mother of invention’. In this paper, we show
how necessity forces the unemployed in three EU countries to engage in entrepreneurial activities in
a bid to creatively achieve sustainable outputs – e.g., an income, a living or a job/company – in
conditions of austerity and constant crisis. As the term ‘necessity entrepreneur’ infers, it is
necessity, rather than opportunity (Hessels et al., 2008), that is pushing, rather than pulling (Amit
and Muller, 1995; Gilad and Levine, 1986; Poschke, 2013), them to become entrepreneurial, and
the transition they experience is relatively poorly understood. By focusing on necesity
entrepreneurs, we seek to contribute to the emerging, alternative tradition that recognises
entrepreneurship as a diverse phenomenon (Gartner, 2008; Mitchell, 1997; Shane and
Venkataraman, 2000; Venkataraman, 2002), as a process rather than an ideal state to be reached and
goes beyond a focus on wealth and business creation (e.g., Imas and Weston, 2012; Ogbor, 2000;
Özkazanç-Pan, 2009). In doing so, we also hope to present a more nuanced understanding of both
entrepreneurs and the entrepreneurial process. | es |
