Entrepreneurship in the Market Process: A Comparative Analysis of Schumpeter’s and Kirzner’s Entrepreneurship Theories

Abstract

Entrepreneurial activities are recognized as one of the most important factors of economic growth. Although entrepreneurial activities were considered static in the emergence of economics, they have been recognized as one of the basic phenomena of the market after the 20th century and these activities have emerged as entrepreneurship theories and have maintained their place in the literature until today. The most notable and current entrepreneurship theories in the literature are Joseph A. Schumpeter’s entrepreneurial theory and Israel M. Kirzner’s theory based on entrepreneurial exploration activities. However, there are important differences between the theories of these two names. This study aims to compare the entrepreneurship theories of Schumpeter and Kirzner and to reveal the importance of entrepreneurship in economic theory.

Piyasa Sürecinde Girişimcilik: Schumpeter ve Kirzner’ın Girişimcilik Teorilerinin Mukayesesi

Öz

Girişimcilik faaliyetleri ekonomik büyümenin en önemli etkenlerinden birisi olarak kabul edilmektedir. Girişimcilik faaliyetleri, her ne kadar iktisat biliminin ortaya çıkışında durağan kabul edilse de 20.yy’dan sonra piyasanın temel olgularından birisi olarak kabul görmüş ve bu aktiviteler girişimcilik teorileri olarak ortaya çıkıp günümüze kadar literatürde yerini korumuştur. Literatürde en dikkate değer ve güncel girişimcilik teorileri, Joseph A. Schumpeter’in girişimci teorisi ile Israel M. Kirzner’in girişimci keşif faaliyetlerine dayanan teorisidir. Ancak bu iki ismin teorileri arasında önemli farklılıklar mevcuttur. Bu çalışma Schumpeter ve Kirzner’in girişimcilik teorilerini mukayese edip iktisat teorisinde girişimciliğin önemini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır.
