Drawn from material presented at a 2006 workshop held at Michigan State U. to honor A. Allan Schmid and his work on how institutions evolve and thereby impact economic performance, these 17 essays address ways to understand such alternative institutions as property rights. Schmid contributes an essay on institutional theorists and the power of the "troublesome economist," and others follow with presentations on assessment of the evolution and impact of institutions and the development of a methods for analyzing institutional change. Essays also cover volitional pragmatism, rationality, simplicity in design, institutional choice, law as a facilitator or inhibitor of transactions, institutional individualism, the role of attitude, post-Keynsian institutionalism, induced institutional change, market information, culture and social norms, and whether economic development requires certain property rights. Includes a case study set in Costa Rica and a summary by the editors on the impact of alternate institutional structures. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
