De Gruyter Handbook of SME Entrepreneurship
"A small business is not a little big business." Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are considered the engines of worldwide economies and the main sources of job creation. Management in these companies is different from management in larger/older enterprises with their already established concepts and instruments. In view of the high importance of SMEs in emerging, developing and developed economies worldwide, the De Gruyter Handbook of SME Entrepreneurship investigates the underlying mechanisms and practices of management within these companies with a focus on entrepreneurship, growth and innovation. It argues that it is time for a dedicated theory of "SME Entrepreneurship" to emerge. Entrepreneurial thinking and behavior in SMEs must be differentiated from that of start-ups and large companies. On the other hand, it also explores the different entrepreneurship manifestations that exist within a widely heterogeneous group of SMEs. The handbook provides a theoretical framework in which to understand, compare and contrast the complexity of SMEs in both domestic and international processes and addresses the strengths, achievements, and challenges of entrepreneurship in SMEs.
Strategy, Innovation and Entrepreneurship - An Introductory Overview Over Relevant Perspectives
The paper extends the argument (Reschke 2005b,c,d; Reschke and Kraus 2005) that strategy and strategic management can be seen as elements of a process of social evolution based on a model of systemic evolution that considers feedback on developments from the perception of actors. After introducing our perspective on strategy, we introduce theoretical perspectives from economics, evolutionary biology and psychology in section two. In the third section we build a link between micro and macro-levels based on an evolutionary conception of organisational change and the impact of perception giving rise to an evolutionary learning model. In section four we develop an evolutionary model of economic competition, which is based on population ecology. Here, evolutionary developments are seen as a result of strategizing by actors. We argue that this process can give rise to a baseline model of industry evolution and its deviations. We link the foregoing discussion to strategic management.

Cross-Border Life and Work
This book discusses the risks, challenges, and opportunities of cross-border work and life from a multidisciplinary and multilevel perspective, including (a) the individual, (b) the social and organizational, and (c) the regional levels, taking into consideration the diverse and multilayered social, economic, technological, and jurisdictional issues involved. Emerging public policies and advanced information technologies (IT) have created new opportunities for work and life that thrive in global value chains and markets. Life, in general, and work, in particular, are increasingly organized across borders of various kinds and are subject to rapid change. At the same time, life and work have been determined by 19th and 20th century infrastructures and technologies. As a consequence, new strategies and measures are required for both physical and virtual work and life spaces.
