Abstract

Latinas represent one of the fastest-growing groups of entrepreneurs in the United States, yet they are understudied in entrepreneurship research. Through three case studies of middle-class and wealthy Latinas, we explore how ethnorace, gender, immigration, class, and community shape their entrepreneurial endeavors as they practice what we refer to as feminist ethnoracial entrepreneurship–entrepreneurial endeavors that aim to empower, assist, and/or build community amongst women through ethnic and gender-specific services and experiences. Feminist ethnoracial entrepreneurship, in theory, aims to mitigate ethnoracial and gender inequality. Our participants draw from their lived experiences to inform their entrepreneurial motivations to make a profit and a social difference. By incorporating research centered on feminist approaches to entrepreneurship, we show how gender and the ethnoracial context combine with class to shape Latina entrepreneurs' ethnoracial capitalism and community empowerment practices at the levels of institutions, in community spaces, and markets as they navigate broader structures of racial and gender inequality. Our participants challenge structural ethnoracial and gender exclusion via entrepreneurial endeavors in finance that aim to address gender and racial gaps in access to commercial capital, by opening Latino coffee shops rooted in community and feminist ideology, and by fashioning physical and digital makers markets grounded in Chicana/Latina Feminisms.

拉丁裔精英和中产阶级企业家中的女权主义民族企业家精神
拉丁裔代表了美国增长最快的企业家群体之一,但他们在创业研究中却没有得到充分的研究。通过对中产阶级和富有的拉丁裔的三个案例研究,我们探讨了种族、性别、移民、阶级和社区如何影响他们的创业努力,因为他们实践了我们所说的女权主义民族创业——创业努力旨在通过种族和性别特定的服务和经验,在女性中赋予权力、帮助和/或建立社区。从理论上讲,女权主义民族创业旨在缓解种族和性别不平等。我们的参与者从他们的生活经历中吸取教训,告诉他们创造利润和社会差异的创业动机。通过结合以女性主义方法为中心的创业研究,我们展示了性别和种族背景如何与阶级相结合,在机构、社区空间和市场层面塑造拉丁裔企业家的种族资本主义和社区赋权实践,因为他们在更广泛的种族和性别不平等结构中进行导航。我们的参与者挑战结构性的种族和性别排斥,通过在金融领域的创业努力,旨在解决在获得商业资本方面的性别和种族差距,通过开设植根于社区和女权主义意识形态的拉丁裔咖啡馆,以及通过塑造基于墨西哥/拉丁裔女权主义的实体和数字制造商市场。
