Abstract

This paper presents the approach to the understanding of the entrepreneurship phenomenon. With this approach, it is possible to identify this social activity as essentially distinct from those that are seemingly similar but distinct in content. Having reviewed the relevant literature of this area of study with a critical eye, the author has identified systemic errors in the traditional understanding of entrepreneurship (first-order and second-order errors). Developing this approach, the author has introduced the concept of anti-ideology, which mirrors a nature of innovating as a process of creative destruction. This statement assumes that true entrepreneurship exists within the idea/anti-idea framework. The author has identified mandatory and sufficient attributes of entrepreneurial innovation. Based on the applied methodology, the author has proposed a model of progressive materialization for the anti-idea (Progressive Materialization of Anti-idea, PMAi). It helps to measure entrepreneurship in terms of its innovating component.
