The purpose of in this study is to examine how scholarship on women’s entrepreneurship/gender and entrepreneurship has contributed to understandings of the embeddedness of entrepreneurial activity. The authors review studies from the past four decades (1975-2018) to assess the extent to which research has examined the embeddedness of entrepreneurial activity in two key institutions – the family and the labour market – that remain pervasively and persistently gendered.,The authors blend a systematic quantitative analysis of scholarly publications with qualitative analysis, identifying key themes and contributions. The corpus of material comprises over 1,300 scholarly publications, including both empirical and theoretical contributions.,This analysis shows that attention to the embeddedness of entrepreneurial activity in gendered social institutions is a clear legacy of women’s entrepreneurship research. The systematic quantitative review found that over one-third (36.6 per cent) of scholarly publications examines questions of family and/or labour market embeddedness in some way. The qualitative analysis identifies a rich array of themes over the past four decades and a growing global reach of scholarship in recent years.,This paper contributes to knowledge about the embeddedness of entrepreneurial activity. It offers a comprehensive review of how entrepreneurship is shaped by the embedding of such activity in two predominant (and gendered) social institutions – families and labour markets. It will be of use to scholars seeking an overview of this topic and considering new research questions to pursue.

关注性别机构中的嵌入性的遗产

本研究的目的是研究关于女性创业精神/性别和创业精神的奖学金如何有助于理解创业活动的内在性。作者回顾了过去四个十年（1975年至2018年）的研究，以评估研究在两个主要机构-家庭和劳动力市场-中仍然普遍存在和持续存在性别歧视的创业活动的内含性。将学术出版物的系统定量分析与定性分析相结合，确定关键主题和贡献。该材料集包括1,300多种学术出版物，包括经验和理论著作。该分析表明，关注企业家活动在性别社会机构中的嵌入性是妇女创业研究的明显遗产。系统的定量审查发现，超过三分之一（36.6％）的学术出版物以某种方式审查了家庭和/或劳动力市场嵌入的问题。定性分析确定了过去四个十年中各种各样的主题，并且近年来学术研究的全球范围不断扩大。本文为了解企业家活动的嵌入性做出了贡献。它全面回顾了企业家精神如何通过将这种活动嵌入家庭和劳动力市场这两个主要的（和性别平等的）社会机构而形成。
