From the reviews:“The encyclopaedia is aimed at a professional and practitioner readership, and will find a natural role in the library of a large academic/research institution. It will appeal also to writers and researchers in think-tanks and lobbying bodies, and in foundations engaged in supporting political research and analysis of social capital and entrepreneurship.” (Stuart Hannabuss, Reference Reviews, Vol. 24 (8), 2010)
