Call for papers: "Non-Financial Capital"

For a special issue of the International Journal of Entrepreneurship and Small Business.

Light and Dana (2013) suggest that social capital promotes entrepreneurship only when supportive cultural capital is in place. They conclude: “As a result, the existing entrepreneurs’ social networks are inadvertently closed to nascent entrepreneurs from the wrong side of the ethno-racial divide, frustrating their entrepreneurship. Our results have implications for a broad range of situations involving entrepreneurship or the lack of it among propinquitous ethno-religious or ethno-racial groups in the developed as well as in the developing world (Light and Dana, 2013, p. 618)” This special issue welcomes further research on these issues.
