Abstract

Urgency of the research. Global enterprises take the leading position in the international trade nowadays and rapidly expand their activity around the world. Target setting. The process of formation and development of global entrepreneurship is a relatively new term in the global economy, insufficiently researched in a theoretical and methodological sense. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. The scientific works of such scholars as M. Rennie, T. Madsen and Serveys P., Mackauli A. Knight G., Cavusgil S., Acs S., Armington S., Delgado M. and others deal with the global entrepreneurship development. Uninvestigated parts of general matters defining. The scientists have not yet sufficiently developed the interdisciplinary potential of global entrepreneurship. The research objective. The article aims to structure the interdisciplinary essence of global entrepreneurship by identifying the relationship of various aspects of the entrepreneurship theory and international business. The statement of basic materials. The article addresses the nature of global entrepreneurship as a multidisciplinary term, which was included in different aspects of entrepreneurship and international business theories. The author has defined the elements of global entrepreneurship in the studies of XX century and investigated the entrepreneurship activity from the point of view of international business. The potential new horizons for the research of these themes are defined. Conclusions. The process of global entrepreneurship requires not only organizational, economic, social and employment assessment, measurement and interpretation, but also socio-cultural and philosophical thinking. Further scientific study of this process should be built on synthesis of research on entrepreneurship and international business that includes interdisciplinary and mutual methodological principles. This approach will promote a holistic, systemic vision of problems and contradictions of global entrepreneurship.
