Research project: Indigenous strategies in fishing activity in New Caledonia, Capital theory and Indigenous entrepreneurship framework.

Abstract

The research explores the factors impacting on the development of entrepreneurial strategies in indigenous context of Pacific. The unique setting of New Caledonia implies the overlapping of different research fields from anthropology and history to geography. This perspective proceeds with emphasis on context in entrepreneurship research and encourages us to look at society as more complex than just the imaginary world of perfect competition, but rather as a product of accumulated history and diverse properties - as knowledge or heredity characteristics. Indigenous entrepreneurship research highlights different type of strategies which can be viewed under the perspective of opting-in the global economy, or opting-out the global economy.  The approach implied taking into account the particular role of context using capitals theory applied to an indigenous entrepreneurship framework. Inspired by grounded theory process, the role of trust sparkle our attention in the first phase of research.
