Abstract:

The immigrant entrepreneurship is an important topic in the study of economic geography. The study of the immigrant entrepreneurial activities is a key dimension to interpret the social activities of immigrant groups and the formation of immigrant culture. And immigrant entrepreneurial activities have drawn continuous and in-depth studies. Based on the use of Citespace software, and utilizing data on the Web of Science between the year of 1991 and 2018, this paper analyzes the historical context and progress of the immigrant entrepreneurship research from four aspects, including the concept and connotation, research trends , research frontiers and evolution, and future research possibilities of the international immigrant entrepreneurship. The study finds that, 1) the United States and the United Kingdom play important role in immigrant entrepreneurship. 2) Regional millieu, global city, and ethnic self-employment are the three most studied clusters in immigrant entrepreneurship research.3) The most frequent keyword is entrepreneurship, and the most closely contact words with the entrepreneurship are performance, employment and organization, reflecting that researchers have great interests on the study of economic benefits of entrepreneurship, on the other hand, it shows that for now immigrant entrepreneurship research is mostly about low-end immigrant groups. As time goes on, the focus of the immigrant entrepreneurship research becomes more open and diversified.

Key words: international immigration, immigrant entrepreneurship, immigration theory

摘要:

移民创业活动是经济地理学研究中一个重要主题。创业是一种经济活动,但不同群体的创业活动蕴含着不同文化内涵和行为选择。移民创业的研究是解读移民群体社会与文化形成的一个关键的维度。移民群体具有明显的边界,其内部的空间秩序、社会网络、族裔文化以及共同的身份认同都是值得探讨话题,因此学界对移民创业活动给予了持续的关注。移民活动日益频繁,所涉及的行业地域日益扩大,对移民创业群体的研究有利于促进区域经济发展、了解全球政治网络,沟通地理学与社会学和经济学的研究融合,是经济地理学研究中值得关注的问题。本文基于Citespace软件,运用文献分析法,从国际移民创业概念内涵阐述、研究动态、研究前沿及演变、未来研究可能四个方面出发,阐述移民创业研究的历史脉络及进展。研究发现美国和英国在移民创业中占有重要地位。区域创业环境是研究者们主要关注的话题,与创业联系最为紧密的是绩效(0.28)、自雇佣(0.17)和组织(0.17)等关键词研究。全球化趋势不可逆转,跨国主义日趋强盛,未来关于移民及移民创业的研究大有可期。
