Summary

Entrepreneurship is widely viewed as an important stimulus for positive outcomes from the micro (individual)-level to the macro (society)-level. Researchers from a variety of scholarly disciplines—economic, sociology, and psychology, for sure, but also anthropology, marketing, and finance, among others—are interested in exploring research questions that speak to the “eclectic and pervasive benefits” of entrepreneurship (Ireland & Webb, 2007: 891). This chapter discusses the work of four GAER awardees—namely, Howard Aldrich, William Baumol, Israel Kirzner, and Josh Lerner—all of who drew upon the rich literatures in their discipline to study entrepreneurship questions. They used the theoretical frameworks and methodological toolkits from their disciplinary training to study important questions of interest to entrepreneurship scholars. In doing so, they advanced the knowledge frontier of their discipline and enriched research in entrepreneurship.
