3. Many economists give their views about entrepreneurship but
Richard Cantillon was the first person who recognise the role
of entrepreneurship. He said that farmer is an entrepreneur who
promise to pay landlord for his land without any assurance of
profits he can drive from his enterprise i.e. land. He said that
there is always a risk factor of fluctuation of prices in market for
an entrepreneur.
Schumpeter added the concept of innovation. He said that an
entrepreneur can be helpful in economic development by
introducing new innovative ideas. Lack of innovation can reduce
the enthusiasm, physical and mental energy of entrepreneur.

4. Sociologists suggest that entrepreneurship can be social
movement. Propounders of this theory believe that cultural values
deeply affect the entrepreneurship and economic development. If
strong family support is with entrepreneur then this will be
fruitful but if family does not care about businessman it can cause
adverse affect.
According to Hoselitz the persons who introduce innovative
ideas reject the traditional ways of doing the things.
Economists believes that special attention given to society can
improve the relations between the entreprise and its
surroundings.

5. Propounders of this theory said that entrepreneurship is most likely to
emerge when a society has sufficient psychological characteristics.
Joseph Schumpeter states that entrepreneur is motivated & driven by
3 things:
(a) ‘The dream and the will to found a private kingdom’ that means
the desire for power & independence.
(b) ‘The will to conquer’ that means the will to succeed.
(c) ‘The joy of creating’ that means satisfaction of getting things
done.
He asserts that matter is beheviour not the actor.

6. FREDRIK BARTEH developed this theory.
According to him, entrepreneurship has two
connecting spheres in the society between which there
exits a difference in values. These spheres are:
Something which is cheap and
Something which is expensive.
Barth states that entrepreneurial beheviour means to
connect 2 different spheres in the society, between
there is a huge discrepancy in the value.

8. JOSEPH SCHUMPETER gave a well-rounded picture of an
entrepreneur. He disclosed the various aspects of entrepreneurship
and produced the competent history of entrepreneurship in
economic theory.
In his book The Theory of Economic Development he said that
art, political, innovative activities are on one side & repetitive and
mechanical activities are on other side. He developed theories of
interest, profit, credit & business cycle. He said that entrepreneur
doesn’t have to be a single person but can be an organization. He
stressed more on technological innovations rather than on
organizational innovations.

and materials whereas innovator utilizing inventions and
