Abstract
Entrepreneurship is a complex phenomenon that involves not only economic activity but
also social mechanisms. The intention to become an entrepreneur is a matter not only of
one’s individual personality but also of one's interaction with the social environment.
This study has three main objectives: predicting the existence of entrepreneurial
behavioural intentions in different socio-economic conditions; examining how
entrepreneurial behavioural intentions formulate entrepreneurial behaviour; and
identifying how social capital influences this relationship. It also aims to reveal the
differences between entrepreneurs in a relatively mature free market economy (Taiwan)
and a newly emerging free market economy (Mongolia). The analysis shows that
socio-economic conditions affect the formation of entrepreneurial intentions. There are
different approaches to building social capital in a relatively mature market and its newly
emerging counterpart. The tendency of having high trust and social ties was found in
Taiwanese entrepreneurs, while monitoring is commonly found among Mongolian
entrepreneurs.
