“…Because carrying capacity for a specific population is not readily observable, previous population ecology studies have included in their empirical models variables known to affect the carrying capacity of the population in question (Baum and Oliver, 1996;Bird and Wennberg, 2014;Zhang et al, 2009). The assumption is that carrying capacity is fixed net of the control variables included (Hannan and Freeman, 1987).…”

The development of entrepreneurship in China is coined in this paper as the 'Chintrepreneurship', namely, the China-way of entrepreneurship, which is defined synthetically as an integral result of ideological transformation, industrial institutionalization and privatization, and technological transition from imitation and innovation. From an evolutionary perspective, China-way of entrepreneurship is resulted from the three-staged economic reformation. From a dialectic perspective, government intervention is not only a driver but also an obstacle to the formation of China-way of entrepreneurship, which is outlined as a compounded effect of dual-track policy, financial policy, FDI policy, science, technology, and innovation policy, education and human capital policy. As an exploratory study and relying on an in-depth and extensive literature review, on-site observations and thousands of interviews, this paper endeavors to establish a theoretical framework, to contour the taxonomy and the four constraints, and to distinguish the formational mechanism of China-way of entrepreneurship from the previously defined ones. Theoretically, this paper proposes a need for a paradigm shift from polarized (Washington Consensus) to de-polarized (Beijing Consensus), and argues that, the network-based framework (aka: the neo-classical economics) fits to rationalize the peculiarity and mechanism of China-way of entrepreneurship, uniquely incubated from the politically autocratic, bureaucratic and cronyism oriented social and institutional systems. This paper concludes that entrepreneurship does exist in China, and that, government intervention and seedling approach serve as strategic and exogenous forces, while imitation and low marginal price act as tactical and endogenous factors -together, they constitute the developmental mechanism of CHINTREPRENEURSHIP, in parallel with economic transition, from traditionally the global production networks (GPNs) to presently the global production and trade networks (GPTNs), from manufacturing-based to service and consumption oriented. From the perspective of Darwin's 'survival of the fittest', criticism is definitely needed, in order to legitimize the theory of CHINTREPRENEURSHIP.

Toward an institutional ecology of establishment of foreign firms in the Chinese construction industry

In the current study, an integration of insights from institutional theory and organization ecology is used to explain the relationship between industry-level ownership structure and the establishment of foreign invested firms in the Chinese construction industry. It is argued that in a stated-owned enterprises dominated environment, where the market forces are weak, legitimation is the major driving force harming the proliferation of foreign firms, whereas in a private-enterprise dominated environment, where the market forces are strong, competition is the major driving force inhibiting the viability of foreign firms. Thus, concentration of either state ownership, implying lower legitimation of the foreign firm form, or concentration of private ownership, triggering tough competition from domestic private firms, is hypothesized to have a negative impact on the number of foreign firms. Using a regional data set from 1994 to 2007, estimation of a cross-section-time series model largely confirms our theoretical claims.institution theory, organization ecology, legitimation, competition, China,
