Über dieses Buch

​This book examines the current body of knowledge on sustainable entrepreneurship. Using network and content analysis, the author maps the structure of the research field and provides a systematic review. In this regard, network analysis is used to find evidence of thematically related clusters of publications and polarizing differences across the subfields of inquiry. In contrast, content analysis is employed to identify and address emerging gaps in the literature. In particular, after discussing mainstream contributions, the author focuses on pioneering research and predicts possible paths that might challenge researchers in the future.

The author contributes to the ongoing debate on the definition and boundaries of the flourishing field of sustainable entrepreneurship, by offering critical insights and possible future development pathways derived from both quantitative and qualitative analyses.

Chapter 1. Introduction
Abstract
This chapter introduces the topic of sustainable entrepreneurship and illustrates the purpose of the volume. As a first step, the chapter provides a definition of what sustainable entrepreneurship is (and is not), particularly shedding light on the possible overlaps with similar sub-fields of entrepreneurship, such as social entrepreneurship and green (or eco or environmental) entrepreneurship research. Then, the chapter outlines the contents of each chapter of the volume.

Chapter 2. Sustainable Entrepreneurship: Framing the Boundaries of Current Knowledge
Abstract
This chapter summarizes previous literature reviews on sustainable entrepreneurship published to date. In fact, taking stock of the state-of-the-art is useful to inspect the theoretical and practical gaps in the current knowledge which are intended to be filled in this volume. Previous reviews have elaborated on general and specific themes of sustainable entrepreneurship, applying diverse methodologies ranging from unstructured reviews to systematic reviews and, more recently, bibliometric ones.

Abstract
This chapter highlights the main trends in the academic research field of sustainable entrepreneurship over the last 17 years (2002–2019).

Chapter 5. Toward a Systematic Review of the Literature: Content Analysis
Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to provide the results of the content analysis of the collected articles. After having read all the articles, the author examines in depth each article included in the previously determined clusters and underlines the major themes, the main methodologies, and the most relevant contributions to the literature. The sustainable entrepreneur, the sources of sustainability opportunities, and the sustainable business are the three most investigated clusters/categories in the literature.
