“…The conditions for SE and SI are partly favorable on structural level, as Mexico has strong traditions in the social and solidarity economy in various regions/states and thereby a solid track record in co-operative and collaborative ways of organizing economic activity (Oulhaj & Gallegos, 2017). This tradition include a focus on alternatives to mainstream finance that are more inclusive and solidary (Oulhaj, 2016;Oulhaj & Lévesque, 2015), a focus on the existing backbone of Mexican economy (small and medium-sized firms and family businesses) (Lundberg & Ramírez-Pasillas, 2017Ramírez-Pasillas et al, 2018;) and an emerging focus on untapped potentials of the Mexican economy (indigenous entrepreneurs, immigrant/migrant entrepreneurs, subsistence entrepreneurs and community based entrepreneurs) (Lundberg et al, 2019;Lundberg & Ramírez-Pasillas, 2020). Two other structural aspects are although major inhibitors for SE and SI to take off for real in Mexico.…”

Para que el emprendimiento social y la innovación social despeguen de verdad en México, se deben abordar y eliminar, o reducir, dos obstáculos principales a nivel estructural. Estos impedimentos son de carácter material y discursivo; el de naturaleza materialista se refiere al poder persistente de la vieja costumbre por el dinero, de las viejas élites, las viejas soluciones, el viejo pensamiento y las viejas formas de organizar la actividad económica que aún domina la vida económica y social en México. Este inhibidor material se entrelaza con el discusivo, ya que los viejos representantes en el poder hábilmente usan un “vocabulario nuevo y fresco” para oscurecer, distorsionar y desdibujar actividades que todavía se basan en la lógica del antiguo régimen.

“…Interestingly enough, entrepreneurship research has historically developed not only as a multi-and interdisciplinary field of research but also as geographically and culturally diverse (Landström, 2015). While some conceptualisations may be rooted in the idea that entrepreneurship is predominantly the creation of new organisations (Gartner, 1988) and that entrepreneurs possess unique attributes that other people do not have (Gartner, 1990), other perspectives focus on different aspects of entrepreneurial activities (Dana, 2019). For instance, the European view on entrepreneurship is fairly rooted in the Rhineland view of capitalism which values collective success, consensus (even co-management with employees) and long-term vision (Albert, 1991;Bacq and Janssen, 2011).…”

The pertinence of a multidisciplinary perspective in entrepreneurship research Entrepreneurship, as a research field, has witnessed substantial growth and development over recent decades. This evolution encompasses phases of differentiation, mobilisation and academic legitimacy (Gr egoire et al., 2006;Landström, 2020;Kumar and Sureka, 2022). This progress has depended on the integration of different paradigms from diverse disciplines to elucidate entrepreneurial phenomena (Groen, 2005).Nonetheless, grappling with the multidisciplinary nature of entrepreneurship research presents a formidable challenge. Scholars' dialogue can prove intricate due to the inherent boundaries of different academic domains (Schildt et al., 2006;Dana, 2007). Despite these barriers, it remains crucial to recognise that given the complex tapestry of entrepreneurship, which spans various societal facets, embracing a multi-lens perspective becomes imperative. Through the application of multiple lenses, we can gain enhanced insights into the entrepreneurial process and its manifold implications.Since the seminal article of Shane and Venkataraman (2000), entrepreneurship scholars have been refocusing entrepreneurship research along the continuum of the entrepreneurial process, aiming to understand the way individuals and opportunities interact (Fayolle, 2013). Specifically, the way opportunities are identified, evaluated and exploited (Shane and Venkataraman, 2000) is becoming a key area of research. This has led to important insights about different stages of the entrepreneurial process, from opportunity recognition to exploitation and development. In this special issue, we sought to highlight studies that focus on a process perspective in entrepreneurship as well as studies researching clear, distinct parts of the process of entrepreneurial activity.In addition, the understanding that the entrepreneurial process is at the nexus of the individual and their environment (Davidsson, 2015) has prompted researchers and practitioners to further question how entrepreneurial competencies can be enhanced to improve the outcomes of this interaction. In this very journal, the Journal of Enterprising Communities: People and Places in the Global Economy, these efforts are recognised and evidenced by the comprehensiveness covered within the topic of entrepreneurial communities, highlighting different ways and different perspectives in which entrepreneurial actors and their environment interact (Chhabra et al., 2022).To understand the impact of all these diverse factors affecting entrepreneurial activity, a multidisciplinary perspective is important, as it contributes to a broader understanding of the entrepreneurial phenomena. At the same time, different disciplines bring forward different research questions and a variety of research methods, which ultimately demands a cohesion within the field and a common understanding from entrepreneurship scholars on what the field is and what determines its "interestingness" (Landström and Harirchi, 2019).
