By exploring the unique characteristics of second-generation ethnic entrepreneurs and the position of their ethnic ventures in the market of the country of residence, this dissertation examines the mutual influences between individual second-generation ethnic entrepreneurs and their enterprises and the markets in which they are embedded. This dissertation explains and defines the determinants of second-generation ethnic entrepreneurship with qualitative studies on three different levels: (i) the individual level (i.e., second-generation ethnic entrepreneurs); (ii) the venture level (i.e., ethnic ventures); and (iii) the macro-level (i.e., institutions).enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Germanyhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/de/Ethnic entrepreneurshipSecond-generation immigrantEntrepreneurial competenceQualitative research80Dissertationurn:nbn:de:gbv:46-elib50164
