Wissenschaftlicher Aufsatz aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich BWL - Unternehmensgründung, Start-ups, Businesspläne, Note: 1,0, Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena, ehem. Fachhochschule Jena, Veranstaltung: Entrepreneurship, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Based on an appraisal by Brush et al. from 2006 this paper is to display how the topic "entrepreneurship and gender" is addressed in specialized press. For that purpose a literature review of the top 10 entrepreneurship journals from 2007 to 2011, including a keyword search was applied. The articles could be divided into six key aspects. It became apparent that the "5 M framework", introduced by Brush et al. could not gain any importance in entrepreneurship research. Therefore a new classification of the articles became necessary. Furthermore a strong divergence between public and research discussion was detected. It can be concluded that a new way of thinking with regard to methodology has to take place in research. Also a better reconcilement between politics and research would be reasonable. Only title and abstract of the particular articles were reviewed and the given period was limited to five years.
