Abstract
Community-based entrepreneurship is a comparatively new area of research in which definitions and boundaries are in debate and development. Peredo and Chrisman (2006) seminal paper proposed a model of the community-based enterprise, in which crisis triggers mobilisation of the whole community on the basis of pre-existing social and cultural capital. While focussing on impoverished communities, Peredo and Chrisman (2006) identified the need for research on community-based enterprise in the context of a developed economy, or as a response to emergent opportunity in the absence of crisis. This paper answers both those needs in reporting on community-driven initiatives to develop regional wildlife sanctuaries in New Zealand. It extends the concept of community-based entrepreneurship into the realm of ecological outcomes and compares these cases with the model proposed by Peredo and Chrisman (2006).
