Rolf Sternberg: new book on Transnational Diaspora Entrepreneurship (TDE)

Together with Maria Elo (Universit of Southern Denmark), Jonathan Levie (University of Galway/Ireland) and José Ernesto Amorós (Tecnológico de Monterrey/Mexico), Rolf Sternberg recently published the "Research Handbook on Transnational Diaspora Entrepreneurship" with the British publisher Edward Elgar. In a good 400 pages, 37 authors from 19 countries deal in a total of 17 contributions with the numerous facets of this specific type of migrant entrepreneurship. After introductory articles on conceptual aspects of the TDE idea, the empirical core chapters focus on country case studies (including Germany) and selected migration corridors (including Mexico-USA or Poland-UK). Contributions on the implications for foundation policy are at the end of this edited volume. The book emerged from the EU-funded research project "DiasporaLink".
