“…It may also be appropriate to control for grant money relevant to self-employment. Small Business Innovation Research awards may aid self-employment involving research and development (Beesley, 2016;Verheul, Bosma, van der Nol, & Wong, 2002). Thus, one measure is the total number of Small Business Innovation Research awards the state received in year y, per 1,000 population.…”

Job lock" studies have found that many people retain full-time work with a large organization to retain large-group coverage (Gruber & Madrian, 2002; U.S. Government Accountability Office [GAO], 2011). 1 Yet state regulations that govern insurance access in the small-and nongroup markets, where the selfemployed can shop for insurance, may create substantial subnational variation in this scenario. State insurance regulations' connections to state-level selfemployment patterns nonetheless remain unclear. Some individual-level studies find self-employment positively linked to state regulations that foster insurance access in the small-and nongroup markets (

“…Here again the US is a net exporter, with overall receipts about three times as large as US payments to companies abroad ( Figure 5). Verheul et al (2002) suggest that the US was able to create a "virtuous circle" of factors, conditions and influences on entrepreneurship. In part, this has revolved around the "triple helix" of university -industry -government interactions (Etzkowitz, 2003;Etzkowitz & Leydesdorff, 2000).…”

The US has been a world leader in innovation and knowledge activities since World War II. Because the US has become accustomed to a position of leadership, there is widespread insecurity-maybe even paranoia-regarding threats to its dominance in technology, beginning with Sputnik in 1956. This paper provides some details of US decline relative, in particular, to European countries over the past two decades, when both strengths and the weaknesses are evident in US innovation and technology. The US has moved from a position of dominance to a position of first among equals, in line with a more widely distributed pattern of science and technological capabilities.

“…As concerns developed economies, such as the United States of America (Verheul et al, 2002), France (Henriquez et al, 2002), Germany (Tamásy, 2006), the United Kingdom (Parker, 2004), Japan (Masuda, 2006), and Hong Kong (Fu-Lai Yu, 2000), several studies have been performed and reveal intriguing findings associated with which factors determine levels of entrepreneurial engagement. Apart from country-level studies, other research works have examined the same topic, with the difference that a cross-country comparison analysis was conducted (Audretsch et al, 2002;Freytag and Thurik, 2007;Grilo and Thurik, 2006;van der Zwan et al, 2010).…”

Purpose -The purpose of this study is to shed light on demographic, environmental and perceptional characteristics and their impact on entrepreneurial engagement in the postsocialist region of the European Union (EU). Originality/value -The study provides useful information in relation to the attitude of postsocialist society toward structural issues which possibly dishearten its engagement to entrepreneurship. Both the geographical area (post-socialist European countries) and the time this research was conducted (i.e. three years after the examined countries' accession to the EU) can be perceived as factors of great interest for both policy makers and entrepreneurs. Design/methodology/approach -
