Description

1. INTRODUCTION There have been many discussions about transition economy. And related researches in the context of China are not in a few cases. However, as Child (2007) illustrated there are still a few researches from the perspective of institution entrepreneurship in exploring related transition economy [1]. In fact, there has been long a tradition among organization and management scholars to argue the question of "managerial intention" [2]. While some of those scholars from strategic management fields have tried to prove the enabling role of management, regarding the actors to be a determined power to escape the constraint of institutions and to induce institution change [3-6]. Other scholars mainly from institutional school insist on the embeddedness of entrepreneur in specific institution environment [7]. The willingness, action and rationality of actors are all restricted by the institutional environment which they embedded into [8]. Therefore there is the "paradox of embedded agency" [9]. Though some scholars are turning their focus on the corporate strategy in transition economy, trying to combine the institutional perspective with strategic perspective [8][10], they neglect possibly the enabling effect of institutions on actors [11]. Also, the enabling role of entrepreneur in transition economy is less explored. According to DiMaggio's (1988) research, less fully explored are endogenous sources of deliberate change, defined as "institutional entrepreneurship" [3]. In fact, entrepreneur is constrained by the institutional environment they embedded; on the other hand, new institutional environment is formed by the action of entrepreneur.
