The Impact of Government Policies on the Development of Regional Entrepreneurship: An Exploratory Study in the North-Eastern Region of India
Subscribe/Renew Journal
There has been consensus about the role of entrepreneurs as change agents of economy, but no agreement on where do they come from and who they are. The evidences indicate that the emergence and characteristics of entrepreneurs are largely contextual and, therefore, cannot be generalized. Nonetheless, the significance of empirical evidences gained in a particular context to the body of existing knowledge and new learning can be, by no account, contested because proceeding from the general to the particular is often perilous because authenticating the particular from the general may not fit in a particular context. Also, the secondary sources often offer contestable interpretations and alternate views. It is against this background, the present paper makes an attempt to find out where entrepreneurs come from and who they are in a relatively less developed state of Assam in the North-East India (NEI). It is found that entrepreneurs come from a broad-base background and there is no typical entrepreneur as such.
