Working from a unique standpoint and challenging the orthodoxy on entrepreneurship, this controversial book explores the possibilities of entrepreneurship in organizations and entrepreneurship in organization creation whilst re-anchoring entrepreneurship within a broader disciplinary approach. Demonstrating that there is an increasingly relevant and complex relationship between entrepreneurship and organization, this volume de-contextualizes entrepreneurship from its present inclusion in management. It provides the philosophical and historical conditions for the emergence of entrepreneurship and management in society. It re-contextualizes entrepreneurship in organization via its central concepts of imagination, desire/passion, power, becoming and organizational creation. It places entrepreneurship among the natural human activities in organized contexts. A fascinating account of the relationship between entrepreneurship and organization, this book is a must read for all those researching entrepreneurship, organizational theory, and business and management thought.
