“…The last classical theory of entrepreneurial groups that I will review does not derive from the work of a single scholar, but, rather, from the work of a set of sociologists who reinvigorated interest in ethnic enterprise during the early 1970s. On a sporadic basis, one can readily locate earlier articles and monographs on ethnicity and entrepreneurship, such as Rose Lee's (1949) research on the changing organizational structure of Chinatown businesses. In the United States, there was also a sustained intellectual tradition that addressed entrepreneurial activity among African-Americans, including such influential works as E. Franklin Frazier's (1957) into the classic small business occupations with which they have now become identified in the popular mind" (1972: 5-6).…”

January 2009 * The initial inspiration for this historical review arose during a professional development workshop at the 2007 Academy of Management (AOM) conference in Philadelphia, in which I addressed the past and future of research on entrepreneurial teams. I would like to thank Howard Aldrich, Hans Landström, and Franz Lohrke for their helpful feedback on an earlier draft of this chapter. As always, any errors of fact or interpretation remain those of the author.

This paper examines the changing occupation patterns of the U.S. Chinese over the past one hundred years, based on the hypothesis of historic ramification that the successive legal and socioeconomic restrictions directed against the Chinese since early years would have played a major role in the shaping of the occupation structure of this minority. The presentation includes historic background, occupation accommodation (past and recent), nativity contrast, the Chinese entrepreneurship, the Chinatown sub-economy, and health status of Chinese with work experience. As a macroscopic review, interpretation of findings are confined to the drawing of general inferences, on the basis of which detailed field studies may be initiated.
