Wicked entrepreneurship : defining the basics of entreponerology

What's the greatest socio-economic problem of our time? Professor Richard J. Arend identifies it as 'wicked entrepreneurship', or the proliferation of evil that harms our economic and social transactions. In this book, Arend defines this phenomenon and its mechanics by specifically addressing the 'business model' of such behavior from an academic perspective. He argues that it is time to understand the cooperative, relationship-based and value-creating system that this evil has put at risk, and maximize the potential of our economies. This book describes a typology of wicked business models to explain the stability of the phenomenon, possible measures of its impact, and solutions to mitigate its harm. It provides a deep understanding of wickedly destroyed economic and social transactions, and empowers academics and students to identify and address these phenomena directly through action and indirectly through affecting policy change.
