Abstract

The extant theory posits that ethno-racial diversity promotes entrepreneurship by increasing the novelty of information and perspectives available for recombination in a region. This view presupposes the flow of novel information among potential entrepreneurs. Yet, we know comparatively little about how regional social structures (e.g., collective social capital) that affect information flows condition this relationship. We build on the sociological literature to theorize how the interplay between collective social capital and residential segregation moderates the relationship between ethno-racial diversity and entrepreneurship. We test, and find empirical support for, our hypotheses among all registered new ventures started in the United States between 1990 and 2018.

区域社会资本如何构建企业家精神、种族多样性和居住隔离之间的关系?

现存的理论认为，民族-种族多样性通过增加一个地区可用于重组的信息和观点的新颖性来促进企业家精神。这种观点预设了新信息在潜在企业家之间的流动。然而，我们对影响信息流的区域社会结构(例如，集体社会资本)如何调节这种关系知之甚少。我们在社会学文献的基础上，理论化了集体社会资本和居住隔离之间的相互作用如何调节民族-种族多样性与创业之间的关系。我们对1990年至2018年间在美国注册的所有新企业进行了测试，并为我们的假设找到了实证支持。
