本文对在英国莱斯特经营的十位波兰企业家进行了研究。社会、文化和经济资本的概念被用作一个透镜,通过它来探讨如何利用他们获得的资本并将其转化为创业活动。民族企业家是在更广泛的社会、政治和经济体制框架和机会结构中发生的,因此,在区分两个群体-战后和当代波兰企业家时考虑到了这一点。他们可以获得的资本形式的不同来源和数量,以及这些资本如何转化为有价值的成果。结合混合嵌入的方法与资本的形式分析,使社会资本以外的种族内的变化,在英国的波兰企业家社区详细说明。
A study of ten Polish entrepreneurs operating in Leicester, UK is reported in this article. The concepts of social, cultural and economic capital are used as the lens through which to explore the way the capital they access is employed and converted into entrepreneurial activity. Ethnic entrepreneurship takes place within wider social, political and economic institutional frameworks and opportunity structures and so this is taken into account by differentiating two groups – post-war and contemporary Polish entrepreneurs. The differing origins and amounts of forms of capital they can access are shown as is how these are converted into valued outcomes. Combining the mixed embeddedness approach with a forms-of-capital analysis enables looking beyond social capital to elaborate on intra-ethnic variation in the UK’s Polish entrepreneurial community.
