However from a socially constructed perspective after the 1990s the supposedly generic structure of entrepreneurship was considered gendered.

In this context this study aims to quantitatively reveal if family-embeddedness affects the number of women entrepreneurship in Turkey as well as economic factors. In the case of its association it indicates how depending on OECD data. With this aim OECD data covering 2006-2017 is used for a causality analysis.
