Abstract

Very often, the term 'entrepreneurship' is used in an unduly elastic sense to refer to 'creative' acts in any walk of life. While such licence with the term may render it useless as a meaningful frame of analysis, there is a need to expand the theoretical paradigm of entrepreneurship to denote, among other things, a creative response to non-industrial economic oppor tunities. Pointing this out, this paper examines the process of agro- mechanical technology diffusion in two districts of Gujarat, a relatively prosperous state in India.
