Debates surrounding institutional change have become increasingly
central to Political Science, Management Studies, and Sociology,
opposing the role of globalization in bringing about a convergence
of national economies and institutions on one model to theories
about 'Varieties of Capitalism'. This book brings together a
distinguished set of contributors from a variety to examine current
theories of institutional change. The chapters highlight the
limitations of these theories, finding them lacking in the analytic
tools necessary to identify the changes occurring at a national
level, and therefore tend to explain many changes and innovations
as simply another version of previous situations. Instead a model
emerges of contemporary political economies developing in
incremental but cummulatively transformative processes. The
contributors shoe that a wide, but not infinite, variety of models
of institutional change exist which can meaniingfully distinguished
and analytically compared. They offer an empirically grounded
typology of modes of institutional change that offer important
insights on mechanisms of social and political stability, and
evolution generally. Beyond Continuity provides a more complex and
fundamental understanding of institutional change, and will be
important reading for academics, researchers, and advanced students
of Political Science, Management Studies, Sociology and Economics.
