This volume presents some of the most important 'debates' that exist in the field of Entrepreneurship today. It brings together leading scholars, deriving contributions from special sessions designed by the Global Consortium of Entrepreneurship

Dead and Should It Be,” “Does the Lean
Start up Deserve all the Hype?” “Entrepreneurial Ecosystem - Weak Metaphor or
Genuine Concept?” “Teaching vs. Doing – Is there a Role for Lecture and Content
in Entrepreneurship Education?” “Should Centers Be Controlled Centrally?” and “Is a Bachelor’s Degree in
Entrepreneurship Worth It?”.
