These resources can be money, time, material, labour, space, energy, and so on. This book on value engineering is a reflection of its uniqueness since it covers both knowledge and creativity and provides step-by-step techniques for maximising the benefits from both. The author starts from the concept of mathematical modelling of value and proceeds to attain the full desired function for the lowest achievable cost. However, steps for job plans like information steps, analysis steps, creativity steps, judgement steps and development planning steps normally adopted for value engineering plans need to be covered citing examples from industries. Some of the human negatives which operate as barriers in value engineering approach should also have been covered. The author has used examples in the book which are mostly theoretical in nature and hence would need proper elaboration and/or refinements. Examples requiring some more elaboration are first, that of single-ended spanners needed in industries and standardised for special applications, and which should not be compared with a D.E. (double-ended) spanner. Because of continuous change in sections of the S.E. spanner, it can take jerk loads and higher bending loads for special application. The functional values of S.E. and D.E. spanners are different (Figures 2.2 and 2.3) which should therefore be elaborated.","PeriodicalId":45394,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Entrepreneurship","volume":"13 1","pages":"95 - 96"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2004-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/097135570401300105","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65275561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The entrepreneurial work structure of small enterprises are exemplary for large enterprises where cognitive and goal dissonance amongst members act as impediments to technology absorption. Several other factors point to superior absorption performance of the small enterprises. This position contrasts the view that large enterprises, owing to their higher R&D spending have higher absorptive capacity, and therefore are expected to learn quicker than small enterprises.

The chapter on SEWA in the new millennium looks like a strategic plan document SEWA has formulated for its intervention in the new millennium. The experience it has gained in the last one decade gave the organisation a belief that change is possible and that the poor, given the necessary support, can bring about change. This chapter focuses on four critical areas and explains in brief how the organisation plans to use them. The strategy it proposes is: capital formation among poor; capacity building ; access to social security and collective strength through organisation. It also understands that all these are interdependent and hence must be integrated. This integration is what the organisation will look for while it envisages its development programme, decides on the target group and implements the same.

Similarly, answers to some questions like the existence of specific processes which help in generating motives for learning, the mechanisms adopted by entrepreneurs to acquire knowledge for growing their businesses, and so on, have been attempted. We all know that solving novel problems is one way which helps entrepreneurs acquire requisite knowledge. These problems are seen to proliferate more in rapidly changing environments and as businesses grow. This article is based on an empirical research which makes an attempt to uncover the processes that generate the necessary motivation to learn. It categorises learning motives and also identifies the basic external and internal learning activities which are practised by entrepreneurs. The benefits that can accrue to those who become familiar with and utilise these findings are also discussed at length. The article finally suggests an agenda for future research on entrepreneurial learning.","PeriodicalId":45394,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Entrepreneurship","volume":"12 1","pages":"155 - 182"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2003-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/097135570301200201","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65275161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A study to validate this interpretation was carried out with entrepreneurs from two countries—Tanzania and Indonesia. The author in this paper draws out the conclusion that the 'lonely rider' image is not only found in the literature, but also actually seen among entrepreneurs. It seems to be a common feature that entrepreneurs attach very little importance to relationships with other actors in their social environment. However, while analysing the 'historical records' on how these entrepreneurs established their enterprises it was seen that entrepreneurs in both countries did exploit their personal relations with friends, colleagues and family members and that too to a substantial degree. It is in this context, the author argues, that the network per spective which emphasises the role of individual relations as social capital presents a more accurate image of entrepreneurs and their enterprises. Although many similarities were found between Tanzanian and Indonesian entrepreneurs regarding their utilisation of these networks, some basic differences were also noted. This paper is based on a qualitative case study approach. The author has used interviews as his main data collection technique.","PeriodicalId":45394,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Entrepreneurship","volume":"12 1","pages":"201 - 223"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2003-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/097135570301200203","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65275322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Tanzania, a mismatch is observed between economic policy reforms and restructuring of the institutional framework. The transition from state-centred to market-led development, if not properly managed, provides disincentives. This is particularly true with most of the small-scale entre preneurs. The mismatch between the slowly changing institutional framework and the fast moving economic policy reforms constrains entrepreneurial endeavour and also raises transaction costs. Based on in-depth interviews with fifteen entrepreneurs, a number of prohibitive taxes and regulations had been identified.
