Abstract

This article advances a structure for understanding the factors, e.g. capital, strategies, culture, and opportunity structure, affecting the embeddedness of ethnic entrepreneurship growth and development in the country of residence. Through the employment of the concept of symbolic capital the article interrogates the roles of the country of origin on the outcome of ethnic enterprises growth trajectories and susceptibility to failure crises. The article, thus, developed an integrated model; theorizing that exogenous factors are critical drivers of ethnic entrepreneurs' economic growth and socio-political inclusiveness/embeddedness.
