Abstract

Face à l'absence de définition universellement acceptée des institutions et à la complexité de les cerner, l'étude du changement institutionnel et des facteurs déterminants de la qualité des institutions constitue un exercice difficile. Ainsi, cet article poursuit trois objectifs. Premièrement, il propose une définition de ce qu'est une institution. Deuxièmement, il présente l'abondante littérature sur les théories du changement institutionnel. Troisièmement, il met en évidence les travaux empiriques sur les déterminants de la qualité des institutions.
