Overview

Diaspora and transnational diaspora entrepreneurship are useful constructs for understanding the experiences of emerging and developing contexts in business and management globally. As a young field there has been growth in the number of publications over the last decade. Notwithstanding, there is need for a volume that more directly engages with and pulls together key concepts, themes, and theories relevant to the field. Transnational Diaspora Entrepreneurship: Theories, Concepts and Experiences from the Periphery introduces and synthesises concepts and theoretical perspectives, investigating key themes and models, while also grounding them in experiences from emerging contexts. To this end the book launches from the physical, psychological, and conceptual construct of the periphery in covering an emerging area of study in the still evolving field of entrepreneurship. Even so, engagement with existing and emerging concepts and themes such as the SDGs, diaspora marketing, diaspora entrepreneurial ecosystems, motivations and SME growth and internationalization, makes the work accessible and relevant to audiences universally. The book is an excellent companion for students, researchers, practitioners, policy makers, managers and development specialists aiming to understand this phenomenon, the implications for developing and emerging contexts and access tools for scaling the impact of this group of entrepreneurs.
