Abstract

Using as a springboard Gartner's (2016) "Entrefesto", and his attempt to articulate complex thinking on entrepreneurial scholarship in a different manner than how it is commonly done, we experiment to do something analogous for the entrepreneurship-as-practice community. In this chapter we wonder what if we were to be thinking EAP research inspired by critical posthuman practice theory, as a precarious practice of creation, and a call to attention. Finding inspiration in in particular Rosi Braidotti's critical posthuman theorizing, and Erin Manning's 'minor gesture', we - stutteringly - propose a manifesto for EAP research, not to avoid 'troubling currents', but as an endeavor to become, a manifesto creative of transformation for EAP research. Ours is a call for a continued experimentation, a becoming-together, avoiding closing-off, and staying curious.
