Abstract

Abstract

Most entrepreneurship studies have an urban focus and are mainly studied from the perspective of exploiting opportunities. Rural entrepreneurship presents different characteristics and needs to be analyzed from a resource-based perspective, because this type of entrepreneurial behavior occurs in rural communities under resource constraints. The perspective of sustainable livelihoods shows the relevant framework in rural entrepreneurship considering the resources and capacities to face poverty in rural areas. Therefore, this study provides a literature review to identify current and emerging issues in rural entrepreneurship from a sustainable livelihood framework. Literature review shows that the main concepts involved in rural entrepreneurship and women’s sustainable livelihood are poverty alleviation, youth, social entrepreneurship and institutions. Likewise, social capital and human capital are analyzed as the most relevant capitals in the documents. This study offers research opportunities in emerging topics related to social entrepreneurship, governance and institutions, livelihood development and environmental entrepreneurship to expand the boundaries of rural entrepreneurship from a sustainable livelihood framework.
