- Summary:
- Immigrants must adapt to conditions in their new environment, with many turning to entrepreneurship for survival, especially when their legal status changes. Some entrepreneurial activities, such as herbal medical therapy, are stimulated by socio-cultural factors in the informal sector. This case interrogates the informal economy of the West African traditional biomedicine in the UK, with Kola exemplifying an undocumented immigrant's entrepreneurial agency.
