The new theory could ground an entrepreneurial welfare state that both encourages individuals to engage in entrepreneurial activities and protects them from the worst extremes of market economies. | | Authors / Editors | Wein, Sheldon | | Date Published | August 1998 | | Download Citation | This citation can be downloaded in the following bibliographic database formats: Tagged; XML; BibTex |
