The authors offer a structuralist analysis of the embeddedness of Arab entrepreneurs in the political economy of Israel, in two stages. Firstly, the authors consider entrepreneurs’ agency in the context of socio-spatial structural aspects concerning tangible networks directly associated with business operations. Secondly, they consider agents’ awareness of opportunities in the market in the context of their access to support institutions and elites. The authors focus on exposing and understanding the root causes of barriers to economic growth. Based on the three structural dimensions studied in the first stage of the analysis, the authors found that ethnicity and marginality create barriers to the expansion of networks beyond home regional networks, despite agents??? attempts to embed themselves in the national economy.
