中文摘要：

以一个长时段的女性主导的家族创业为例，考察制度变迁与中国女性创业者崛起的关系，既有理论的必要性、也有现实的合理性。作者采用扎根理论方法，构建了基于制度理论的分析模型，用研究中自然涌现的“男女平权、创业合法化、女性创业能力”三个基本要素刻画了女性创业者崛起的关键因素。研究结果显示，制度变迁的发生顺序造就了中国女性创业者的崛起，集权体制具有发起大规模社会变革的效率优势，男女平权制度冲击了传统家庭模式和性别分工，改革开放实现创业合法化，通过干中学等方式女性积累并提高了发现、利用创业机会的能力，在三因素的共同作用下，中国女性创业者走上了崛起之路。作者基于制度变迁的视角建立了女性创业的理论框架，分析女性创业的原因以及如何兴起的过程。

Using a longitudinal case of female - led family business, this paper attempts to find the relationship between institutional change and the rise of female entrepreneurship. Based on the grounded theory and institutional theory, we build an analysis model with three dimensions of ＂gender equality, entrepreneurial legitimacy, and female entrepreneurial ability＂ which emerged from the materials. The study indicates that the sequences of the institutional changes lead to the rise of female entrepreneurship. China＇ s authoritarian system has the efficiency advantage of launching a large - scale social reform since gender equality had a direct impact on the traditional family model and sex division, the reform and opening up realized the legitimacy of entrepreneurship, and women gradually accumulated and improved their entrepreneurial abilities on the discovery and exploration of opportunity through learning by doing. Finally, the interaction of the three factors leads to the rise of female entrepreneurship. From the perspective of institutional change, this study tries to analysis female entrepreneurship and also use the theoretical model to explain the rise of female entrepreneurship Keywords ： Female entrepreneurship; Institutional Change ; Legitimacy
