Economics and Institutional Change
Research Areas


Description

The Research Area in Economics and Institutional Change aims at integrating multiple perspectives and methodological orientations to deal with processes of institutional change in economic, social, and political systems. The functioning of markets and industries, key issues in political economics, patterns of economic growth, as well as the structure of political processes and the architecture and dynamics of democratic institutions are among the key objects of investigation.
