Embeddedness

Maxim Sytch, Yong Hyun Kim · Palgrave Macmillan UK eBooks · 2018

Early sociological research suggested that economic actions and social relationships are deeply intertwined. Drawing on this research, Granovetter (American Journal of Sociology 91:481–510, 1985) advanced the concept of embeddedness, which stressed that economic action takes place within networks of social relationships. This influential work motivated research in economic sociology, organizational theory and strategy that aimed to identify how various patterns and dynamics of social structure affect economic action and outcomes.

Embeddedness

Jens Beckert · The International Encyclopedia of Anthropology · 2018

Embeddedness is a core concept in economic anthropology. Associated primarily with the work of Karl Polanyi, it refers to the interconnections between economic functions in society and other social spheres. The economy is not a separate realm but is connected with social institutions. Only in what Polanyi calls “market society” is this connection absent.

From mixed embeddedness to transnational mixed embeddedness

Susan Bagwell · International Journal of Entrepreneurial Behaviour & Research · 2017

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relevance of the mixed embeddedness thesis (Kloosterman, 2010; Rath and Kloosterman, 2002) to businesses with a more transnational mode of operation. Design/methodology/approach Interviews with the owner managers of a sample 24 Vietnamese businesses in London were undertaken to develop an understanding of how micro (individual resources: social, financial and cultural/human capital, and history of migration), meso (local, regional and national markets) and macro (politico-institutional) factors in the UK and overseas influenced business development. Findings The findings illustrate how business development is influenced not just by the interaction of the local (UK) opportunity structure and the entrepreneur’s resources, as suggested by the mixed embeddedness thesis, but also by institutional regimes, economies and markets in key countries of the diaspora, and the interaction of these. The extent to which new transnational opportunities can be exploited, however, depends on access to the necessary local and transnational forms of capital. Practical implications The empirical evidence presented is used to present a re-working of the mixed embeddedness thesis to provide a framework for understanding the drivers of transnational entrepreneurship. Originality/value The paper presents new empirical knowledge of transnational activity amongst the UK Vietnamese business community – a little known refugee community. Conceptually, the paper offers a theoretical development of the mixed embeddedness thesis to enable it to provide an explanation of transnational entrepreneurship amongst new migrant communities.

The material that follows is organized into seven sections. In the first section, we define job embeddedness. In the second section, we outline a brief history of the emergence of job embeddedness theory in turnover and retention literature through the unfolding model of voluntary employee turnover (Lee & Mitchell, 1994), and we compare it to similar constructs used in turnover and retention research. The third section focuses on the nomological network of job embeddedness. Section four examines job embeddedness in different cultural contexts, and section five focuses on the issues in measuring job embeddedness. In the sixth section of the chapter, we present a critique of the field up until now, and in the final section, we propose practical implications for organizations.

Approaching ‘Embeddedness’

Michael Taylor, Simon Leonard · 2017

Embeddedness is recognised as having four basic forms – cognitive, cultural, political, and structural. Cognitive embeddedness identifies the bounded rationality of economic actors and place-based knowledge. Cultural embeddedness recognises the importance of shared collective understandings in decision-making and goal formulation amongst firms doing business in a place. Political embeddedness recognises the place-based impact on firms' business decisions of struggles with non-market institutions that might just as easily foster them or constrain them to the point of failure. At the heart of the embeddeness thesis, however, is structural embeddedness which identifies the manner in which business enterprises are incorporated into local, place-based networks that facilitate and promote information exchange and learning. Furthermore, the model, built on the concept of embeddedness in geography and development studies, is increasingly being criticised. The chapter also presents an overview of key concepts discussed in this book.

Embeddedness/incorporazione

MINGIONE, TERENZIO ROBERTO · BOA (University of Milano-Bicocca) · 2004

“Embeddedness/ Incorporazione” definisce un approccio basato sull’assunto che il comportamento economico non può essere compreso come funzione di utilità di attori atomizzati ma dipende dai contesti sociali diversi in cui gli attori operano, intesi come reti di interazione sociale e come istituzioni, norme e abitudini sociali, politiche, cognitive e culturali. Si assume quindi che comportamenti e preferenze economiche, e, di conseguenza, le modalità di strutturazione della vita economica, siano variabili a condizioni sociali differenti e in ambienti storici e culturali diversi. Il concetto di embeddedness costituisce lo strumento per identificare le diversità sociali di fondo che caratterizzano i comportamenti economici. In questo articolo si discutono le diverse modalità di intendere il concetto di embeddedness e il dibattito metodologico e teorico che scaturisce da diverse interpretazioni delle forme di embeddedness che costituiscono un potente strumento interpretativo della varietà della vita economica in presenza dei processi di crescita della eterogeneità e della instabilità delle società contemporanee.
