Towards A Comparative Institutional Analysis: Motivations And Some Tentative Theorizing

Author

Listed:
  • MASAHIKO AOKI

Abstract

This volume collects 22 articles by Masahiko Aoki, selected from writings published over the course of his 45-year academic career. These fascinating essays cover a range of issues, including mechanism design, comparative governance, corporate governance, institutions and institutional change, but are tied together by a focus on East Asia and a comparative institutional framework.
