Theoretical Perspectives on Institutional Economics : From the Viewpoint of Information, Knowledge and Capabilities in the Theory of Firm

本研究的目的是总结20世纪70年代后期以来恢复的各种制度主义思潮，并探索作为现代经济学新范式的制度经济学的理论视角。在这里，我们特别关注信息，知识和学习在每个人的认知过程中的作用。此外，针对企业组织，我们研究了企业如何学习，协调和积累知识更详细。2002年，我们讨论了现代经济学中企业组织的两种理论，即企业组织的契约理论和能力理论，并对这两种理论的一些问题进行了讨论。基于这些讨论，我们提出了一些建议，以发展植根于现实的企业组织分析。在2003年，我们着重回答了制度经济学的本质是什么、制度经济学的发展方向是什么等基本问题， ...更多信息 现在我们应该接近机构。从这些研究中，我们发现以下研究结果：开始，我们需要概念化的企业模型，其中包括三个因素，如利益关系，知识和学习的相互关系。这使我们能够综合合同和能力的方法来解决公司的问题。因此，这是克服现代经济学中企业理论二分法的一个方向。其次，应该强调的是，我们需要关注的是微观-宏观循环问题，在这个循环中，企业组织与其周围的宏观经济环境之间存在着相互的因果关系。在考察制度与个人的关系时，我们还可以指出“微观-宏观循环”的问题。定义制度经济学的关键标准在于制度化个人的思想，这表明个人不仅构成了制度世界，而且还被制度世界所重构。行动者和结构，虽然不同，因此，在一个相互作用和相互依存的循环连接。少

The purpose of this research project is to sum up the various trends of institutionalism which have been restored since the later 1970s, and is to explore the theoretical perspective on institutional economics as a new paradigm in the modern economics. Here, we paid special attention to the roles of information, knowledge and learning in the cognitive process of each individual. Furthermore, focusing on the firm organizations, we investigated how the firms learned, coordinated and accumulated knowledge in more detail. In the year of 2002, we dealt with two approaches to the firm organization, that is, contractual and competence approaches to the firm in the modern economics, and then, discussed, some problems of both approaches. Based upon these discussions, we made some proposals to develop the analysis of the firm organization rooted in reality. In the year of 2003, we focused on giving the answer to fundamental questions such that what the essence of institutional economics is and h … More ow we should approach to institutions. From these investigations) we found the following research results.To begin with, we need to conceptualize the model of the firm which comprehends three factors such as the relationship of interests, knowledge and learning one another. This enables us to synthesize both contractual and competence approaches to the firm. Thus, this indicates one of directions to overcome the dichotomy of the theory of the firm in the modern economics.Next, it should be stressed that we need to be concerned with the problem of micro-macro loop, where there is a mutual causation between firm organizations and the macro-economic environment surrounding them.Finally, we can also point out the problem 'of micro-macro loop when we attempt to consider the relationship between institutions and individuals. The crucial criterion for defining institutional economics lies in the idea of institutionalized individuals, which suggests that individuals not only constitute the world of institutions but also are reconstituted by the world of institutions. Actor and structure, although distinct, are thus connected in a circle of mutual interaction and interdependence. Less
