Continuing his groundbreaking analysis of economic structures, Douglass North develops an analytical framework for explaining the ways in which institutions and institutional change affect the performance of economies, both at a given time and over time. Institutions exist, he argues, due to the uncertainties involved in human interaction; they are the constraints devised to structure that interaction. Yet, institutions vary widely in their consequences for economic performance; some economies develop institutions that produce growth and development, while others develop institutions that produce stagnation. North first explores the nature of institutions and explains the role of transaction and production costs in their development. The second part of the book deals with institutional change. Institutions create the incentive structure in an economy, and organisations will be created to take advantage of the opportunities provided within a given institutional framework. North argues that the kinds of skills and knowledge fostered by the structure of an economy will shape the direction of change and gradually alter the institutional framework. He then explains how institutional development may lead to a path-dependent pattern of development. In the final part of the book, North explains the implications of this analysis for economic theory and economic history. He indicates how institutional analysis must be incorporated into neo-classical theory and explores the potential for the construction of a dynamic theory of long-term economic change.

读后感
这部书分为三部分，集中回答了三个问题：什么是制度；制度变迁的动力；制度对于经济效绩的影响。三个问题结合一起回答了是什么、为什么、怎么办的问题。 在第一部分，诺斯集中解释了什么事制度，制度产生的原因。其采用了交易费用经济学思路分析了制度产生，制度之所以确立...
评分 评分诺斯想要解决的难题：一些无效率的制度何以能够实现长期驻存？即若制度变化能带来总体福利的改进，是什么阻止了这种改进的实现？诺斯给出的答案是：交易费用的存在以及制度的报酬递增。 事实上，对无效制度长期存在问题更简单的表述是：为何希克斯改进不总能实现...
评分【http://blog.sina.com.cn/leiwon】在《西方世界的兴起》和《经济史上的结构和变革》的写作过程中，诺思尝试着使用新制度经济学的分析工具来重新解释经济史，收到了预期的实验功效，但还不足以开宗立派。直到这本《制度、制度变迁与经济绩效》的问世，诺思才应该算是成为一位...
评分我看的是刘瑞华翻译的版本，语言上来说要比这个版本好很多，这本书上承其《经济史中的结构与变迁》，增加了非正式制度的分析维度，认为制度的变迁是与正式制度之间的互动的结果，对非正式制度的分析以意识形态为基础，这本是解释集体行为的希望之光，可惜在其之后的著作中放弃...

因为这本书入的坑
评分Not easy to read. North's work is to build a systematic theory of institution and institutional change, but the theory he built is quite rough, lots of important concepts are used without careful examinations, the causal effects between institution and organization are mutual, the institutionalism is actually inner contradictory to the neoclassic.
评分上次读还是自己的智识停留在柏拉图和亚里士多德的时候，想必那时问教授的问题很让他困惑。。制度理论是自由主义，马克思主义，社会资本主义三大范式的折中。这三种范式几乎在同一时间意识到对社会的理解离不开制度。诺斯大致出身自由主义制度学范式。制度决定游戏规则，组织在既定游戏规则框架内博弈。组织根据经济和政治影响力大小试图改变正式制度亦即重塑游戏规则，而制度的存在使权力的变迁无法太迅速地呈现，因此保证了社会系统的相对稳定。非正式制度的使用对发展理论很有益(参见Ostrom etc)。外生冲击试图改变正式制度时非正式制度（包括既存行为）常加以阻挠；而外来参与者进入制度中后其行为与偏好也常被制度重塑或改变。科技和创新很大程度受制度影响，因此制度可能影响国家经济发展。但无制度起源的探寻，这大概是A&J的头功。
评分看过好久了吧！
