Major Field of Science: | Social Sciences | Field Category: | Economics and Business | Keywords: | Religion;Tourism;Hospitality;Entrepreneurship | Issue Date: | 13-Jan-2020 | Source: | International Journal of Contemporary Hospitality Management, 2020, vol. 32, no.1, pp. 148-172 | Volume: | 32 | Issue: | 1 | Start page: | 148 | End page: | 172 | Journal: | International Journal of Contemporary Hospitality Management | Abstract: | Purpose: This study aims to provide a theoretical account of the nexus of religion and entrepreneurship in hospitality and tourism (H&T) by considering the influences of religion on entrepreneurial motivation, acquisition of resources for entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial behaviour. Design/methodology/approach: The authors synthesise research and theory on religion and entrepreneurship and apply it within H&T, taking into account the specificities of the industry. Specifically, they pooled together relevant theory and empirical research findings which they summarised to identify points of convergence and divergence, before refining the data to allow for further theoretical insights to be gained. Findings: The authors suggest that religion may positively or negatively influence entrepreneurship; in particular, they identify various modes of religion influences, which offer insights into how religion may encourage, sustain and amplify entrepreneurship or alternatively inhibit entrepreneurship. Originality/value: Religion offers an important yet underused lens for understanding the activities and mechanisms influencing entrepreneurship in the rapidly evolving H&T industry. This study identifies different aspects of the two multidimensional and interdisciplinary concepts of religion and entrepreneurship and offers new insights into the relationship between the two within the context of H&T | ISSN: | 09596119 | DOI: | 10.1108/IJCHM-02-2019-0185 | Rights: | © Emerald | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology Oxford Brookes University University of International Business |
