This paper addresses the questions why it is difficult to explain and predict entrepreneurship by approaching the questions from former theories. The paper suggests that development of an approach where the motivation, why entrepreneurs decide to start a new venture, should be highlighted and taken into account when choosing the theoretical framework. Motivation is thought to act as framework in different economic and social contexts.
