ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN THE SOCIALIST AND POST-SOCIALIST SPACE
Helsinki 31.10.2011 klo 10:00 - 01.11.2011 klo 16:30

ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN THE SOCIALIST AND POST-SOCIALIST SPACE
October 31 – November 1, 2011.
Aleksanteri Institute, University of Helsinki
(Unioninkatu 33, 2. floor)

This workshop is dedicated to studying entrepreneurship and
entrepreneurial behaviour in different sectors of socialist and
post-socialist society. Previously entrepreneurship has been analysed
mostly in the economic sphere. Here, the topic is discussed in a
broader social and cultural perspective in addition to the fields of
technology and science. We also explore East-West interaction during
the Cold War, investigating how Western economic actors functioned in
the socialist arena and impact this interaction has had on the
post-Cold War period.
