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.

評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...

我隻能說這是一本開創性的無比偉大的書！
评分the current political, economic, and military organizations and their maximizing directions are derived from an opportunity set provided by the institutional structure that in turn evolved incrementally.

评分每次讀都有新的體會，但並不能說自己都讀懂瞭，單單transaction costs這一概念就覺得還有很多需要體會的。
评分Chapters 1 and 12.
