Abstract

science.Moreover, I show that new institutionalists transcend the limits of old institutionalism, as they include in the analysis both formal and informal institutions, and elaborate theories of institutional emergence and change.In the second section of the article, I discuss the main assumptions of historical institutionalism and its conception of institutional change.To grasp the distinctive character of the latter, I compare it with the conception of institutional change in rational choice institutionalism.
