Abstract

AbstractThis article identifies the specific explanatory variables of self‐employment prevalent among ethnocultural groups. An interdisciplinary literature review results in the identification of several schools of thought suggesting four spheres of influence: the individual or self, the ethnocultural environment, the circumstances in society, and a combination of these. A conceptual framework is then developed, identifying two types of self‐employment, orthodox entrepreneurship and reactive self‐employment. A model links different ethnocultural communities (from empirical studies in the literature) to the explanatory variables relative to specific ethnocultural groups.RésuméCet article identifie les variables explicatives partic‐ulières au travailleur indépendant qui prévalent parmi les communautés ethnoculturelles. Une revue de littéra‐ture permit l'identification de plusieurs écoles de pensée lesquelles suggèrent quatre variables explicatives: l'in‐dividu ou le moi, l'environnement ethnoculturel, les cir‐constances et une combinaison environnement‐circon‐stance. Un cadre conceptuel est alors développé, identi‐fiant deux types de travail indépendant: l'entrepreneurial orthodoxe et le travail indépendant réactif Un mod‐èle est ensuite développé, afin de relier l'appartenance culturelle (d'après les études empiriques dans la littéra‐ture) avec les variables explicatives pertinentes à ces groupes ethnoculturels précis.
