Description In the last decades, entrepreneurship has emerged as a social, cultural and economic phenomenon promoted on a global scale by states, institutions, and experts. As a discourse and practice, it can be seen as a response to a rapidly changing global economy, a remedy for high unemployment rates, and a way to exercise freedom. The goal of this session is to stimulate discussion on the variegated spaces in which entrepreneurship takes place. We invite contributions focused on entrepreneurship research along the lines, but not exclusive to, the following topics: - Globalization - The Global South - Specific case studies on entrepreneurship - Institutional frameworks and entrepreneurial activity - The entrepreneurial subject - Neoliberalism - Economic transition - Development - Affect and entrepreneurship - Work, lifestyle and freedom - Precarity - Knoweldge transfer/exchange and best practices If interested, submit a 250 word abstract to either Antonio Cabrera ( jacabr...@email.arizona.edu) or Feras Klenk (feraskl...@email.arizona.edu) by October 25, 2017
