Research project Entrepreneurship, gender and economic growth: challenges to feminist theory
The project uses and develops feminist theories within the framework of research on entrepreneurship.
Feminist theories are generally about interpreting and understanding how gender (social gender) is created and how subordination of women takes place. A feminist approach shows that entrepreneurship is male gendered and portrays entrepreneurial women as secondary and underperforming.
Entrepreneurship theory is generally gender-blind, which means that women as entrepreneurs are invisible and that women's (and men's) inventions and innovative business ideas are not included in policy and research.
