PRODUÇÃO CIENTÍFICA EM EMPREENDEDORISMO NO BRASIL: UMA REVISÃO DE LITERATURA DE 2004 A 2020

In order to assess entrepreneurship research progress in Brazil between 2004 and 2015, it was carried out systematic literature review, in Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) database, with the term entrepreneurship. Research themes on the subject of entrepreneurship were analyzed in 105 articles published in 29 journals, which were classified in the opportunity-individual approaches (70.6%) and attributes of the entrepreneur (29.4%), the micro levels of analysis (31.5%), meso (29.3%) and macro (39.1%) and in the qualitative methods (46.0%), quantitative (24.0) joint (2.8) and theoretical (27.0%). National literature tends to converge with international literature on research topics, but tends to diverge in the focus of analysis; while in Brazil the surveys focus on the macro level, internationally this focus is shifted to the micro level. It is concluded that the field has been growing, prevailing empirical studies of the phenomenon in the context of the companies, developed based on qualitative methods.
