Abstract

Objective: identifying the possible relationships between socioeconomic variables and the manifestation of the Individual Micro-Entrepreneur (IME). Methodology/approach: from the survey of characteristics of the IME, in databases in the Brazilian scope, under a quantitative approach, multiple regression analysis was applied, including social and economic variables of municipalities in Minas Gerais. Main results: there are significant effects of the variables education, income, and basic sanitation on the proportion of IME at the municipal level. Their values show that better socioeconomic conditions are inversely related to the IME. Theoretical/methodological contributions: this study contributes to the discussion on entrepreneurship policies and the types of businesses to be promoted by governments. It identifies its explanatory variables in developing countries. Relevance/originality: this study (a) strengthens the scientific construction based on the results of the institution of the legal framework of the IME in Brazil; and (b) it delves into issues related to the effect of socioeconomic variables on IME, covering entrepreneurship “for survival” and as a “lifestyle” – themes that are still little explored by the academic literature, especially when it involves developing countries. Social/management contributions: in practical terms, to present the social and economic realities of entrepreneurs benefiting from the IME legal apparatus provides grounds for reflecting and analyzing the expected effects of this public policy.
个体微型企业家(IME)的社会经济决定因素
目的:确定社会经济变量与个体微型企业家(IME)表现之间可能存在的关系。方法/方法:根据对巴西范围内数据基的综合环境特征的调查,采用了定量方法,采用了多重回归分析,包括米纳斯吉拉斯州各城市的社会和经济变量。主要结果:教育程度、收入、基本卫生条件等变量对市级IME比例有显著影响。它们的值表明,较好的社会经济条件与IME呈负相关。理论/方法贡献:本研究有助于讨论创业政策和政府应促进的企业类型。它确定了发展中国家的解释变量。相关性/原创性:本研究(a)加强了基于巴西IME法律框架制度成果的科学建构;(b)它深入研究了与社会经济变量对IME的影响相关的问题,涵盖了“为了生存”的创业和作为一种“生活方式”的创业——这些主题在学术文献中仍然很少被探索,特别是当它涉及到发展中国家时。社会/管理方面的贡献:从实际意义上讲,为反映和分析这一公共政策的预期效果提供了依据,以展示受益于国际货币基金组织法律机构的企业家的社会和经济现实。
