Abstract

We offer a fresh approach to culture-entrepreneurship research by focusing on country-level cultural and individual-level personal achievement values to decouple the theoretical mechanisms proposed by the internalized cultural values perspective from other cultural mechanisms proposed by the legitimacy and social support perspectives. We find cultural achievement values are positively related to individual-level entrepreneurship—and that this relation is mediated by individuals’ personal achievement values. Our study highlights the relevance of the internalized cultural values perspective, underscores the importance of disentangling the distinct theoretical mechanisms through which culture influences entrepreneurship, and sheds light on how culture matters.
