dc.description.abstract	Während Entrepreneurship in Industriestaaten in der wissenschaftlichen Literatur bereits vielfältig behandelt worden ist, so ist doch derzeit wenig über das Konzept Entrepreneurship in der Umgebung von Entwicklungsländern erforscht. Die Dissertation versucht, hier mit Hilfe von verschiedenen Analysen Antworten auf Fragen zu finden wie: Wer ist in einem solchen Kontext ein Entrepreneur, wer darunter schafft Arbeitsplätze? Wie sind die Bedingungen für Betriebsansiedlungen, welche sozialen Sicherungssysteme gibt es, wie sind die Handlungsspielräume?	de

dc.description.abstracteng	Two compelling reasons motivate the work in this dissertation. While enormous literature on developed countries has emerged identifying the determinants of entrepreneurship and its impact, very little is known about the characteristics and the role of entrepreneurship in less developed countries. Who are entrepreneurs in such contexts and who amongst them create jobs for others? What is the impact of geographic location on the initial size of new firms entering markets? What are the welfare implications of entrepreneurship in a developing country and what are the dynamics of entrepreneurial choice? Furthermore, recent methodological advances in econometrics allow rigorous analysis of occupational choice problems and the determinants of new firm formation. In this dissertation, I employ new tools of spatial analysis, Bayesian semi-parametric and non-parametric methods and some recent advances in econometrics to examine these questions.	de
