Political Institutions (2)
  1. Definitions
    1. Formal & informal rules, that are enforced and observed by the people who identify with the institutions
      1. Allows for order and predictability, and formation of stable expectations of norms of interaction and reciprocity
        1. Provides codes of appropriate behaviour, affective ties, and a belief in legitimate order
          1. Shape, enable, constrain actors into logic of appropriateness
        2. Jepperson, 1991)
          1. Three primary carriers of institutionalisation
            1. 1. Formal organisation (work org. with formal organisation structure, hierarchy, SOP)
              1. 2. Regime (Explicitly codified rules and sactions institutionalised in some central authority system, without being embodied in formal org.)
                1. Culture (Rules, procedures and goals w/o primary representation in formal org., no monitoring)
                2. Degree of Institutionalisation
                  1. 1. Deeply embodied in a framework of institutions
                    1. 2. Has been in place for a long time
                      1. 3. High level of taken-for-grantedness
                        1. 5. Linked to some trascendental moral authority or presumed laws of nature
                          1. 4. General acceptance of its appropriatness
                            1. 6. Central to its system
                            2. Characteristics of Institutions
                              1. 1. Resistant to change - order-generating epitome of continuity (some, say inefficiency)
                                1. 2. not static, made up of rules, regulations, routines, political actors
                                  1. 3. However, cautions against the tendency to see institutions as self-enforcing rules and procedures with little to no possibility of change
                                2. Unit of analysis in institutionalism
                                  1. 1. Rules 2. Routine 3. Norms 4. Identities of an institutions
                                    1. This measures, the effectiveness, impact on outcomes, why and how institutions emerge, evolve, change, become obsolete, rejuvenated, replaced & when do institutions not change
                                  2. Four types of institutional change
                                    1. 1, Institutional formation = consolidation of rules and disavowment of social entropy
                                      1. 2. Institutional development - institutional continuation with change within the institution
                                        1. 3. Deinstitutionalisation - breakdown in institution
                                          1. 4. Reinstitutionalisation - Exiting from existing institutional form and establishment of another institutional reform
                                          2. (March & Olsen, 1989)
                                            1. Change catalyst (M&O, 1989)
                                              1. 1. Rule-governed and institutionalised in specific sub-units
                                                1. 2. Generated by routine interpretation and implementation of rules
                                                  1. 3. Reallocation of resources
                                                    1. i) M&O silent about role external actors, factors, and environment played
                                                      1. ii) transformative change can be the result of incremental, step-wise shifts that are barely visible at the outset
                                                      2. In-built coping mechanism

                                                              1. 4. Local rationality
                                                                1. 5. Conflict avoidance
                                                                2. What are political institutions for?
