A volume in Research in Entrepreneurship and ManagementSeries Editor John E. Butler, University of Hawaii at ManoaUntil recently, research in family business has been confined to a sub-group of entrepreneurship scholars,labor economists, and sociologists. Family business employment is often the only economic option availableto migrants, the first entrepreneurial experience for young people, and a source of an economy’s newbusiness creation activities. These issues are typically framed in terms of the generational transfer of wealth,management succession, or the interplay between the economic system of a family and its sociopoliticalsystem. The phenomenon is clearly widespread but for some reason continues to be poorly understood.We believe that progress on the empirical front has been hampered by a lack of accepted theoreticalframeworks. For example, attempts to employ agency theory, geographic agglomeration and spill overs,social networks, sense making, bargaining and other frameworks have been scattered. In our view, the extantresearch has not created the theoretic ballast that can withstand repeated empirical verification. More fundamentally, researchers are beginning to ask,’Is family business theoretically distinctive or a convenient phenomenon for exploiting familiar theories with new data?’We believe the time is ripe for a focused look at the theoretical history and prospects of family business research. Review articles grounded ineconomics, sociology, psychology and political economy and that offer multidisciplinary implications are especially sought. Theory based empiricalpapers are also welcomed. We believe that there are exciting opportunities for theory development and so encourage authors to focus on this in theirsubmissions. In sum, the focus of this volume is on showcasing and advancing the latest research in family business.

    The August riots of 2011 started off in London and spread across different parts of the country. People questioned whether or not the riots were really about the shooting of a young black man by the police. That is open to debate. What is, however, unquestionable is that there are segments of society that are disengaged from the mainstream. While some may believe that this was ...
