Summary: | This article examines both origins, logic in the economic theory and historic in the history of the economic thought, of the Schumpeterian entrepreneur. The logical origin lies in the analytical necessity of building a "typify entrepreneur", as particular type of economic agent, to make understandable the process of economic transformation. This type allows the passage of the static analysis, the walrasian circuit, that dynamics of the economic evolution. The historic origin of this type entrepreneur does not make Schumpeter a so original author as we could think of it. Some years before, numerous important authors, and known well by Schumper, had already proposed the descriptions of the entrepreneur very close to that of Schumpeter. Among these, Max Weber, Werner Sombart, Alfred Marshall, Paul Leroy-Beaulieu and Friedrich von Wieser are studied here. |
