The Role of Formal and Informal Chinese Institutions in Shaping the Entrepreneurial Landscape

Jean-Michel Quentier

Abstract

This paper views entrepreneurship in China as a legitimacy seeking process. We use institutional theory as a lens to understand the pattern of entrepreneurship in China. We also examine how rapidly changing formal and informal institutions are likely to bring change in entrepreneurship in the country.
