Entrepreneurship in the Arab World by Haya Al-Dajani (Hardback)
Entrepreneurship in the Arab World is a pioneering academic reader and research companion offering an in-depth exploration of entrepreneurship in the Arab world. Edited by leading scholars with deep regional expertise, the book addresses the cultural, institutional, religious, and socio-economic dynamics shaping entrepreneurial activity in Arab countries. With contributions from local and international experts, the book provides a rich, contextualized analysis across a broad spectrum of topics, including women's entrepreneurship, youth entrepreneurship, social innovation, family enterprises, digital entrepreneurship, green entrepreneurship, Islam and entrepreneurship and more.
This book is designed for university students, educators, researchers, business support agencies, international aid agencies, and policy-makers working in or focused on supporting entrepreneurship in the Arab world. Its structured chapters include case studies, key learning points, and discussion questions to enhance teaching and learning.
The book fills a critical gap in contextualized entrepreneurship education resources by offering a tailored, region-specific deep dive. It promotes culturally relevant learning, provides practical insights for students and practitioners, and offers policy recommendations for fostering inclusive and sustainable entrepreneurship. This essential text will support the growing regional movement toward economic diversification and youth empowerment and serve as a benchmark for future research and pedagogy in Arab entrepreneurship studies.
