Exploring the internationalisation process of small and medium sized enterprises: a strong structuration perspective

Abstract:
Exploring the Internationalisation Process of Small and Medium Sized Enterprises: A Strong Structuration Perspective Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly active in international markets and it is important to understand their processes of internationalisation. Extant studies explain the firms’ internationalisation process in terms of dualist and dichotomous thinking, with researchers implicitly emphasising either structural (environmental) or agential (managerial) dimensions. Such approaches exclude the interplay and interaction between structure and agency from their analysis yet knowledge of this relationship is seen as crucial to fully understanding the process of firm internationalisation (Dutta et al., 2016; Sydow et al., 2010).

Unexpected lives: the intersection of Islam and Arab women’s entrepreneurship

Unexpected lives: the intersection of Islam and Arab women’s entrepreneurship
(2020)
Tlaiss, Hayfaa A.; McAdam, Maura
Abstract:
This paper explores how Islam is understood by Muslim women entrepreneurs and considers its influence on their entrepreneurial experiences in the country-specific context of Lebanon. In so doing, we adopt a qualitative interpretative approach, drawing upon 21 in-depth, semi-structured interviews with women entrepreneurs. Accordingly, we present empirical evidence detailing how Muslim women entrepreneurs utilise various aspects and teachings of Islam to make sense of their entrepreneurial decisions within the context of restrictive social and cultural practices. We thus provide insight into how women’s entrepreneurship interlocks with Islamic teachings and the restrictions imposed by patriarchal sociocultural values within the country-specific context of Lebanon. This paper advances entrepreneurship research by demonstrating how Islam unfolds as a source of inspiration and resilience for women entrepreneurs, if and when equipped with an Islamic feminist interpretation.
