目的
本文的目的是通过认识到平凡的创业实践中固有的日常阻力，来质疑占主导地位的创业概念化。它的主要目的是展示普通个人在边缘化和受压迫的背景下开展的创业活动如何成为抵抗经济逆境，社会边缘化和政治（殖民）统治的重要手段。
设计/方法/方式
在de Certeau的日常生活的做法的概念化框架内，这项研究利用了“重点民族志”，依靠“参与观察”和“非正式访谈”，探索巴勒斯坦妇女街头小贩的看法和经验，以及他们如何使用日常创业的做法在露天市场的耶路撒冷，成为社会和政治权力。
结果
本文中的论点表明，边缘化的巴勒斯坦妇女，谁是配备了一个真正的批判性的视野，他们的现实和一个biophilic的态度，使用embritneuring制定新的可能性，为自己和家人。这些妇女通过她们在街头贩卖的创业行为，与经济和社会政治限制进行了斗争，将创业行为从单纯的经济实践转变为一个包罗万象的人类项目，一个更具人性的项目。
独创性/价值
本文扩展了这一现象的复杂性和动态性的论点，并揭示了其政治性质，迄今为止在现有文献中没有得到充分解决，以及揭示了潜在的物质主义，以提高个人赋权，并有助于有意义的社会变革。此外，它解决了学术工作的需要，重点是普通人在新的和具有挑战性的空间中经历各种形式的压迫所进行的日常创业活动，这在主流理论和研究框架内很少得到承认。
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to problematise the dominant conceptualisation of entrepreneurship by recognising the everyday resistance inherent in mundane entrepreneurial practices. Its principle purpose is to show how entrepreneurial activities enacted by ordinary individuals in a marginalised and oppressed context can be an important means of resisting economic adversity, social marginalisation and political (colonial) domination.
Design/methodology/approach
Framed within de Certeau’s conceptualisation of the practices of everyday life, this study utilises a “focussed ethnography”, relying on “participant observation” and “informal interviews”, to explore the perceptions and experiences of Palestinian women street vendors, and how they use everyday entrepreneurial practices in the open-air market of the Old City of Jerusalem to become socially and politically empowered.
Findings
The arguments in this paper demonstrate how marginalised Palestinian women, who are equipped with a genuine critical vision of their reality and a biophiliac attitude, use entrepreneuring to enact new possibilities for themselves and for their families. Through their entrepreneurial act of street vending, these women exemplify a struggle against economic and socio-political constraints, transforming the act of entrepreneuring from a mere economic practice to an all-encompassing human project, one with a more human face.
Originality/value
This paper extends the argument for the complex and dynamic nature of the phenomenon and exposes its political nature, hitherto inadequately addressed in existing literature, as well as uncovers the potential of entrepreneurialism to enhance individual empowerment and contribute to meaningful social change. In addition, it addresses the need for scholarly work that focuses on the everyday entrepreneurial activities carried out by ordinary individuals experiencing various forms of oppression in new and challenging spaces, which are seldom acknowledged within the dominant theoretical and research frameworks.
