创业理论和制度理论在部分孤立的情况下发展起来,但实际上它们是互补的。与罗纳德·伯特的结构性漏洞类比,制度漏洞的概念引起了人们对企业家在被现有制度隔离的场所之间建立联系的方式的关注。特别是在转型经济体中,企业家一方面要为新企业获得制度支持,但又不允许制度吸纳这些企业,另一方面又要建立营利联系,两者之间存在着风险平衡。一位勇敢的中国企业家的经历既说明了制度漏洞的利用,也说明了制度创业的危险。
Theories of entrepreneurship and institutions have grown up in partial isolation, but they are actually complementary. By analogy with Ronald Burt's structural holes, the idea of institutional holes calls attention to the ways entrepreneurs create connections among sites kept separate by existing institutions. Especially in transitional economies, entrepreneurs strike a risky balance between acquiring institutional support for new enterprises without allowing institutions to absorb those enterprises, on one side, and creating profit-making connections, on the other. The experience of a daring Chinese entrepreneur illustrates both the exploitation of institutional holes and the perils of institutional entrepreneurship.
