Abstract
This conceptual paper proposes that the community surrounding a family might serve as a precursor to family firms. Following Zellweger (2012) suggestion that components, essence and identity help define a family firm, I argue that the addition of community identity would serve as an additional component that might help provide a more precise perspective of how to identify and analyze family firms. It uses the context of the Vietnamese Boat People to determine how a particular ethnic community with a unique context can influence what constitutes a family and a family firm.
