Family businesses still form the majority of German and American business populations. The corresponding entrepreneurial families are characterized by a specific structure forming a network of overlapping life courses that is in need for direct negotiations between the generations. In the light of a cultural context pronouncing independence and individuality, life course dynamics evolve that may have cushioning or fueling effects on the business development. Based on a study in Germany, this research project looks in comparative perspective at American entrepreneurial families. Interview material and business information on six families is secondarily analyzed via the Grounded Theory method. It is the object of this research project to develop a causal model of the triad between individual life events, familial life course dynamics, and the business development that allows for quantitative testing.

家族企业仍然构成了德国和美国商业人口的大多数。相应的创业家庭的特点是形成了一种特定的结构，形成了一个重叠的生活过程网络，需要在几代人之间进行直接谈判。在宣扬独立和个性的文化背景下，生命过程的动态演变可能会对业务发展产生缓冲或推动作用。这项研究以德国的一项研究为基础，从比较的角度研究了美国的企业家家庭。运用扎根理论的方法对六个家庭的访谈材料和商业信息进行了二次分析。这项研究项目的目的是建立个人生活事件、家庭生活过程动态和商业发展之间的因果关系模型，以便进行定量测试。
