Concepto de hombre emprendedor: tendencias disciplinares.
- Authors

- Abstract
We explore the concept of the Entrepreneurial Man (EM) that has emerged in two fields of knowledge, from the structural changes imposed by the new neoliberal social order in the last decades of the 20th century. In the field of Economics, the EM has been associated with risks-taking practices, innovating and detecting opportunities, which shows a tendency to incorporate notions, concepts, constructs and categories typically treated by Psychology in general. In organizational and work Psychology, the concept of the EM was initially associated with personality traits, a notion that currently coexists with an approach that emphasizes the individual-context interaction, which tends to privilege psychosocial notions, concepts, constructs and categories. Finally, some issues of contrast and analytical convergence of the EM in the two fields are proposed; as well as the importance of making explicit the reciprocal influence between applied social sciences and their historical context, without ignoring current tensions.
