https://doi.org/10.22394/1726-1139-2021-5-45-62
Abstract
The article describes the stages of formation and evolution of the neo-institutional approach. A brief description is given of the main directions that arose within the framework of the non-institutional theoretical direction. Based on the comparative characteristics of neoinstitutional approaches, trends in modern neo-institutionalism are deduced. The author concludes that the formation of neo-institutionalism has not been completed, and describes promising directions for its further development.
