The Concept of Entrepreneurship As A Research Area In Business History: An Evaluation On Its Origins, Evolution and Its Effect On Culture and Values Abstract

Öz

There are some areas in the history of business which are overlooked by scientists

who claim that history is important or emphasize the importance of their professional

dependency. The purpose of this article is to consider the concept of entrepreneurship,

which is one of the most important examples of these research fields,

in a historical context. For this purpose, the chapter starts with a brief introduction

to the definition of entrepreneurship. Following the literature review in the

second chapter, the concept of entrepreneurship as a research area is examined in

the third chapter. In the fourth chapter, the origins and evolution of the historical development of entrepreneurship are discussed. In the fifth chapter, the effects of entrepreneurship on culture and values are analyzed. In the sixth chapter, a general evaluation is made and the study has been concluded.

bilim adamları tarafından işletme tarihinin gözden kaçırdığı bazı alanlar vardır.

Bu makalenin amacı, bu araştırma alanları içinde en önemli örneklerden birini teşkil

değerlendirmesine müteakip, üçüncü bölümde bir araştırma alanı olarak girişimcilik

kavramı incelenmiştir. Dördüncü bölümde girişimciliğin tarihsel gelişiminin kökenleri

ve evrimi ele alınmıştır. Beşinci bölümde girişimciliğin kültür ve değerler üzerindeki
