Myths and Biases: An Exploration of Women’s Historical Patenting Activities.  aThe book examines female entrepreneurship in the nineteenth century. Economic history has long accorded women entrepreneurs a very minor place, relegating them to the status of historical anecdotes. The hypothesis of women’s withdrawal from the business sphere after the eighteenth century has long dominated. However, this view has recently been subject to a fundamental questioning. Women did in fact actively contribute to economic development by occupying key positions in the business sphere as independent workers, investors and entrepreneurs. Businesswomen were no exception in the nineteenth century. They ran businesses of all sizes and in a wide range of industrial sectors. This book helps to bring nineteenth-century women entrepreneurs out of invisibility, by examining their entrepreneurial practices and shedding light on the role of the legal framework in which they operated. This interdisciplinary book will appeal to students, scholars, and researchers of economic history, business history, history of law, and economics and management sciences in general, interested in a better understanding of female entrepreneurship in the nineteenth century. 0aEconomic history. 0aEntrepreneurship. 0aNew business enterprises. 0aLawxPhilosophy. 0aLawxHistory. 0aLabor economics. 0aPopulationxEconomic aspects. 0aEconomic development.14aEconomic History.24aEntrepreneurship.24aTheories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History.24aLabor and Population Economics.24aEconomic Development, Innovation and Growth.1 aLe Chapelain, Charlotte.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303156410908iPrinted edition:z978303156412308iPrinted edition:z9783031564130 0aFrontiers in Economic History,x2662-978X40uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-56411-6
