Abstract

The theories of new institutionalism in economics and political science usually focus on a particular institutional level and take a higher institutional level as given.From the commonly accepted view about levels of international institutions,constitutive institutions are higher than regulative institutions,and general institutions are higher than specific institutions.This perspective of classifying different institutional levels sheds light on our understanding of the contestation between neoliberal institutionalism and constructivism in the study of international institutions.
