“…The top four theories applied in PE are Public Entrepreneurship Theory (14%), Transaction Cost Economics Theory, Agency Theory and General Theory of Business Modeling has 7% respectively. The public entrepreneurship theory provides innovative ideas by way identifying and acting on opportunities that will enable proper management of public resources (Carnes et al, 2019;Delabbio & Zeemering, 2013;Dhliwayo 2017;Diefenbach, 2011;Najmaei & Sadeghinejad, 2016;Pugalis et al, 2016;Smith, 2012). Transaction costs theory is useful in explicating market, public, and institutional failures, allowing a comparative assessment of imperfect alternatives rather than an unnatural focus on an ideal public outcome (Klein et al, 2010;Pitelis, 2013).…”

“…The analysis revealed that the majority of the articles reviewed (59%) explored efficiency in PE based on the premise that PE can catalyze organizational and regional development (Ali et al, 2019). However, a lack of a business mindset in the public sector was a major reason for its usual bureaucratic and inefficient reputation (Liddle, 2016a;Najmaei & Sadeghinejad, 2016). However, in recent times, public agencies in countries like the United States of America, Canada, England, and Switzerland have started to adopt PE as a means of improving their efficiencies.…”

“…It is expected that PE adoption by public agencies will lead to the maximization of public outputs with fewer resources or inputs (e.g. Ali et al, 2019;Cunningham et al, 2016;Dhliwayo, 2017;Klein et al, 2013;Kouakou, 2018;Lee et al, 2012;Lindholst, 2019;Najmaei & Sadeghinejad, 2016;Xu & Carey, 2015). However, despite the expected efficiency improvements of PE adoption, some countries have been reluctant to embrace PE in their public agencies (Carnes et al, 2019;Liddle, 2016b;Najmaei & Sadeghinejad, 2016).…”

“…It is also viewed as a policy instrument (policy entrepreneurship) that enhances the initiation of activities by the government for improved public sector productivity (Delabbio & Zeeering, 2013;Hayter, 2015;Klein et al, 2010;Liddle & McElwee, 2019;Prelipcean et al, International Entrepreneurship Review R I E 2014). PE is conceived as corporate entrepreneurship (CE), that is, a combination of political/public entrepreneurial activities and policy entrepreneurship (Diefenbach, 2011;Najmaei & Sadeghinejad, 2016;Zampetakis & Moustakis, 2010). To put it differently, CE is equaled to PE (Ćwiklicki, 2017;Diefenbach, 2011;Zampetakis & Moustakis, 2010) as it entails a collective initiation that leads to the establishment of new institutions or improves on the already existing ones that will pave way for improved public sector productivity and the wellbeing of the citizenry.…”

The aim of the article is to review some basic issues surrounding public entrepreneurship (PE), as it is perceived as a measure to improve the performance of public organizations. Research Design & Methods: This article uses Systematic Assessment Quantitative Technique (SQAT) advanced by Australian researchers (Catherine Pickering and Jason Antony Byrne). It allows the reproduction of verifiable reviews, through geographical, theoretical, and methodological gaps identification in literature. 61 peer-reviewed PE articles from six quality academic databases were systematically reviewed based on the following headings: time and geographical distributions, article type (conceptual or empirical), theories, themes, and methods of data collection. Findings: The analysis shows that large numbers of PE articles were published in 2016, with more publications in North America and Europe, while Africa has meagre publications. Most of PE articles are conceptually inclined and this suggests more empirical studies be conducted so as to have scientific knowledge of PE adoption. Besides, the study revealed that PE is mostly adopted by federal and state governments across the globe with little or no adoption at the local government level. Significant numbers of PE articles utilized one research method (the survey was dominantly used), future researchers can explore PE studies by merging more research methods to broaden the scope of PE. Implications & Recommendations: This study provides a clear picture of what is been investigated and has provided guides for future researchers to widen the knowledge adoption of PE around the globe for better service provision by public stakeholders Contribution & Value Added: The study systematically reviewed 61 peer-reviewed PE articles from six quality academic databases (Emerald, Elsevier, Sage, Springer, Taylor & Francis, and Wiley), thereby facilitating the understanding of PE and providing guides for future researchers of PE around the globe.

“…To accelerate economic development, the development of entrepreneurial spirit needs to be encouraged, particularly for village. Entrepreneurial value transformation requires synergy between government policy to regulate business environment and entrepreneur to operate therein (Najmaei & Sadeghinejad, 2016). Through entrepreneurial values application, BUMDes managers will be more freely implement corporate actions without village government's preference to hold them back.…”

The Indonesian Government has encouraged the development of village-owned business as an alternative utilization of village transfer fund. The trust of the Indonesian government in the village government has been seen from the transfer of funds given to the village. This fund aims to develop their village. Building village-owned business should certainly be counterbalanced with a public accountability mechanism. This research aims at describing the capacity of public governance in the accountability system performed by public sector organization. This research also explores public capacity in supporting the accountability of BUMDes management from a cultural perspective. Village communities have distinct characteristics where not all systems can operate without local wisdom. This research employs both quantitative and qualitative approaches and use questionnaire and interview guide as its instruments. This research is conducted in Banyumas and takes 41 village business units and informants consisting of village business manager, village official and villager elements as the samples. The data and information are analyzed using quantitative descriptive analysis method with support of information analyzed using interactive analysis method. The research results show that public governance capacity in the accountability of village business management is still low. The opportunity of stakeholders’s involvement in public accountability system is not yet created by public organization. This is due to the strong patrenalistic culture among Indonesian society. The village community tends to give full trust and to the village government, especially the village head. This kind of patrenalistic culture opens opportunities for not optimal accountability horizontally. Consequently, the accountability only applies vertically. This research suggests improving the capacity of public governance in the accountability system of village-owned business management through optimizing stakeholders’ role in the accountability of Village-Owned Enterprise’s management.
