The paper aims to provide a synthesis of key discussions within scholarship that is critical of mainstream institutionalism. It adopts a thematic approach to chart debate and areas of convergence about key issues. The first section of the paper briefly charts the rise to prominence of the mainstream “collective action” school. Each of the themes identified as central to the alternative critical approach are then examined in turn. These are the ‘homogenous community’ critique; the avoidance of politics critique (further divided into ideational politics and politics of local empowerment); and the sociological critique. The paper concludes by reflecting on the challenge of ‘making complexity legible’ which faces the nascent critical tradition in institutional analysis.
