This Handbook focuses on the complex relationship between entrepreneurship and conflict. Editors Wim Naudé and Bernadette Power construct a broad overview of central research themes in the field, covering states being captured by entrepreneurs, states capturing businesses, entrepreneurship in post-conflict reconstruction, and entrepreneurs in conflict against other entrepreneurs.

Contributing authors analyze pragmatic evidence and academic literature to explore entrepreneurship and conflict from industry, country, and firm level perspectives. They consider conflict in the context of family business settings, the ways in which war entrepreneurship and military strategy influence long-term societal developments, and the role of entrepreneurship in peace-building. Ultimately, the Handbook warns against the dystopia that destructive digital entrepreneurship can cause, outlining the challenges it poses and advocating for institutional responses in order to ensure its regulation.

This Handbook is a fascinating read for researchers, scholars, and graduate students specializing in conflict studies, entrepreneurship studies, business and management, and politics and economics.

Edited by Wim Naudé, Visiting Professor of Technology, Entrepreneurship and Development, TIME Research Area, RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany and Bernadette Power, Senior Lecturer in Sustainable Business, Cork University Business School, University College Cork, Cork, Ireland
