Author(s)

Abstract

This paper investigates the phenomenon of entrepreneurship within the transitional economies with specific focus on Poland. Further, the nature of social capital and its influence on entrepreneurship is also examined. Additional purpose is to further explore the cognitive and behavioral aspect of social capital that tends to influence the development of entrepreneurship within society. The finding suggests that one of the prime reasons that Poland achieved smooth transition compared to other transitional economies is its social capital that willingly accepted both the positive and negative aspects of economic transformation.
