Legitimacy, Interest Group Pressures, and Change in Emergent Institutions: The Case of Foreign Investors and Host Country Governments
构建了一个政策制定模型,强调社会化和认知局限如何解释新兴制度的变迁机制,指出新兴制度更易受挑战,反对者可通过框架或参照点质疑其合法性,而更广泛的制度结构和组织特征会调节变革压力。
We offer a simple model of policy making, emphasizing socialization and limits on human cognition to explicate mechanisms of change in emergent (as opposed to established) institutions. Emergent institutions are more susceptible to change, and their opponents may use frames or existing reference points to illustrate inconsistency with prevailing notions of legitimacy. Broader institutional structures and specific organizational characteristics moderate pressure for change. This perspective has novel implications for strategy and policy design.
