THE STARTUP "THE EMERGING INSTITUTION": FROM THE PHILOSOPHICAL CONCEPT TO THE IDEA OF SELF-EMPLOYMENT

Summary/Abstract: This research paper aims to explore the development of entrepreneurship, tracing its roots to the emergence of the concept of the Startup "the emerging institution" in ancient philosophical thought. We analyze this progression through a survey of ideas from early Greek philosophers. Plato's concepts form the foundation of this study, suggesting that the notion of "the emerging institution" has deep ties to Greek civilization and philosophy, particularly with the idea of utopia. Aristotle's thoughts on ownership and household management further supported this notion. Following this, we examine the contributions of Ibn Khaldun in Islamic economic thought, as well as those of Adam Smith and David Ricardo in classical economic theory. Together, these ideas demonstrate that the concept of "the emerging institution" originated within Greek civilization. Initially, it was seen as the individual within their household, a purely philosophical concept. Over time, this idea has evolved into its modern form, linking academia to broader society, particularly through Decree 1275, which pertains to "the emerging institution". This reinforces the Greek notion by introducing the concept of the entrepreneur, which also returns to the individual’s personal activity and ownership.
