| Tiivistelmä: | The authors discuss the creation of organizations and their survival as distinct selection processes, and consider the significance of their divergence. The authors propose the possibility of asymmetric selection, where entry selection and exit selection differ from each other in strength. An observed increase in founding rates hence may reveal a decline in the selection threshold for entry- implying lower average fitness among boom-time entrants. The authors also discuss other processes that might educe founding waves, and explain the different implications of these accounts for the empirical model. Estimates of the model support the theory of asymmetric selection in two out of three markets using a comprehensive dataset describing organizations in the US computer industry. |
