In this research article, we systematically review literature on entrepreneurial affect and emotions in entrepreneurship education (EE) impact studies. In view of the increasing usage of entrepreneurial affect in the EE literature and the multiplicity of its facets, the main aim of this article is to create a definitional framework of affect. Based on the criteria of scientific standard and relevance for EE, we critically select 46 literature sources published from 1984 to 2017 and conduct a citation analysis of their impact. We then systemize and classify these sources using co-citation analyses as well as conduct a critical review of content similarities. As a result, we identify five main groups of the literature sources: (a) Affect in entrepreneurship research, (b) Affect in EE impact research, (c) Affect-cognition relationship, (d) Affect-conation relationship, and (e) Conceptual contributions. Our critical review of the literature sources further leads to the creation of the definitional framework of affect. The framework facilitates deeper understanding of affect and advocates terminological precision. It may, therefore, serve other EE researchers in conducting impact studies. In this vein, we formulate propositions for further research by combining the affect infusion model with the theory of planned behavior.

In this 1999 book Pierre Keller examines the distinctive contributions, and the respective limitations, of Husserl's and Heidegger's approach to fundamental elements of human experience. He shows how their accounts of time, meaning, and personal identity are embedded in important alternative conceptions of how experience may be significant for us, and discusses both how these conceptions are related to each other and how they fit into a wider philosophical context. His sophisticated and accessible account of the phenomenological philosophy of Husserl and the existential phenomenology of Heidegger will be of wide interest to students and specialists in these areas, while analytic philosophers of mind will be interested by the detailed parallels which he draws with a number of concerns of the analytic philosophical tradition.

In Kant and the Demands of Self-Consciousness, Pierre Keller examines Kant's theory of self-consciousness and argues that it succeeds in explaining how both subjective and objective experience are possible. Previous interpretations of Kant's theory have held that he treats all self-consciousness as knowledge of objective states of affairs, and also that self-consciousness can be interpreted as knowledge of personal identity. By developing this striking new interpretation Keller is able to argue that transcendental self-consciousness underwrites a general theory of objectivity and subjectivity at the same time.

Smartphones, e-mobility, Internet of Things (IoT) -our world is situated in the middle of digitalization, product life cycles are short and innovations are particularly welcome in the information technology (IT) industry, as they imply a great opportunity for lucrative businesses. In particular, innovative start-up companies are playing an increasingly important role in this context. However, a strict consideration of country-specific circumstances (Germany and Latvia have been selected as examples) has to be made to evaluate founding culture. The following paper focusses on these issues in different ways and gives an insight of the entrepreneurial situation in the respective countries to the reader in the way how different circumstances affect start-ups and how the future development in the countries should be. The results show that -besides Germany -Latvia also portrays a very attractive market with even hidden potential for IT start-ups.

Introduction : La technique du volet osseux réalisé à la micro-scie et repositionné in situ peut être une technique alternative à la décortication dans le cadre de dents incluses, de chirurgie endodontique, d'exérèse de corps étranger, de lésions kystiques ou de dépose d'implants ostéo-intégrés non fonctionnels. La micro-scie permet un geste rapide qui pourrait remplacer la décortication à la fraise boule ou l'utilisation du piézotome. Technique : Un bloc cortical a été délimité par quatre traits d'ostéotomie à la micro-scie et clivé en regard de la zone à opérer. En fin d'intervention, le volet cortical a été réinséré et impacté en position initiale. En cas de manque de stabilité, il a pu être maintenu, soit par des vis et/ou des plaques d'ostéosynthèse, soit par des ligatures résorbables. Discussion : L'émergence de cette technique est en partie liée au progrès de l'instrumentation chirurgicale. Le repositionnement in situ du volet en fin d'intervention, garant de la conservation osseuse, s'oppose à l'incarcération épithéliale et favorise la régénération osseuse. Toutefois, la fixation du volet osseux en fin d'intervention est une étape délicate qui conditionne la réussite de l'intervention. L'utilisation de la micro-scie permet d'obtenir une bonne visibilité opératoire, moins de perte osseuse lors des ostéotomies et un gain de temps par rapport à la décortication et la piézochirurgie.
