Abstract

We focus on the rise of female entrepreneurship in Serbia and collect an extensive biographical dataset of women, who took part in privatization during 2002–2019. Although women enjoyed the same de jure rights as men, they faced a number of informal restrictions such as patriarchal values and tradition-related occupations in low-wage sectors. Nevertheless, using controls for firm and personal characteristics, we find that own entrepreneurial success of new female owners was decisive for firm survival and that female ownership during the privatization was not solely a facade for the activities of their powerful husbands or parents.

这是一个男人的世界？塞尔维亚私有化过程中女性创业的兴起

我们关注塞尔维亚女性创业的兴起，并收集了2002年至2019年期间参与私有化的女性的广泛传记数据集。虽然妇女在法律上享有与男子相同的权利，但她们面临一些非正式的限制，例如父权价值观和低工资部门的传统职业。然而，通过对公司和个人特征的控制，我们发现，新的女性所有者自己的创业成功对公司的生存是决定性的，私有化期间的女性所有权不仅仅是其强大的丈夫或父母活动的表象。
