Place-Attachment and Social Legitimacy: Revisiting the Sustainable Entrepreneurship Journey

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This paper revisits the sustainable entrepreneurship journey by introducing a ‘place- based’ sustainable venture path model. We suggest that distinguishing between emotional (‘caring about the place’) and instrumental (‘using the place’) place attachment of sustainable entrepreneurs deepens our understanding of how place-based challenges of sustainable venture legitimacy are managed over time.We conclude with avenues for future sustainable entrepreneurship research.
