Although a large body of literature deals with the concept of globalization, the study of the relationship between globalization and entrepreneurship is an unchartered territory. We look at data from eighteen Latin American and Caribbean countries over a fifteen-year time span. Our findings indicate that de facto economic, social, trade and interpersonal globalization are negatively related to female and male entrepreneurial activities. De facto political globalization is the only category of globalization this study finds to be related positively to entrepreneurial activity (male and female), which implies policymaking may be a viable manner to encourage entrepreneurial activities. Political shifts to encourage females to undertake entrepreneurial activities can be seen across the globe.

拉丁美洲的全球化、性别和创业活动

尽管有大量文献涉及全球化的概念，但对全球化与企业家精神之间关系的研究是一个未知的领域。我们查看了 15 年时间跨度内来自 18 个拉丁美洲和加勒比国家的数据。我们的研究结果表明，事实上的经济、社会、贸易和人际全球化与女性和男性的创业活动呈负相关。事实上的政治全球化是本研究发现的唯一与创业活动（男性和女性）正相关的全球化类别，这意味着政策制定可能是鼓励创业活动的可行方式。在全球范围内都可以看到鼓励女性从事创业活动的政治转变。
