Item-typ:Veröffentlichung, The collapse of cooperation: The endogeneity of institutional break-up and its asymmetry with emergenceDecline and break-up of institutionalized cooperation, at all levels, has occurred frequently. Some of its concomitants, such as international migration, have become topical in the globalized world. Aspects of the phenomenon have also become known as failing states. However, the focus in most social sciences has been on institutional emergence and persistence, not collapse. We develop an endogenous explanation of collapsing institutions. Collapse may be an implication of the very economic success of institutionalized cooperation and of increasing system complexity, when cognitive conditions for effective collective decision-making do not proportionately evolve. Moreover, we show that collapse is not a simple logical reverse of emergence. Rather, institutions break up at different factor constellations than the ones prevailing at emergence. We approach endogenous institutional break-up and its asymmetry from various paradigmatic and disciplinary perspectives, employing psychology, anthropology, network analysis, and institutional economics. These perspectives cover individuals, groups, interaction-arenas, populations, and social networks.Wissenschaftlicher ArtikelBand:#2004663 400 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item-typ:Veröffentlichung, A systemic framework for the computational analysis of complex economies: An evolutionary-institutional perspective on the ontology, epistemology, and methodology of complexity economics(2016-05-09); ; ; This theses introduces the idea of a symbiotic relationship between evolutionary-institutional and complexity economics. It consists of two major contributions: The first contribution focuses on how the emerging research program of complexity economics can benefit from evolutionary-institutional theory. I show that complexity economics still lacks an adequate philosophical foundation. I explicate why such a foundation is needed if complexity economics is to promote further scientific progress and that such a foundation must consist of an adequate ontology, epistemology, and methodology. The following parts of the theses then draw upon institutionalist and social theory to develop these three aspects: I derive a definition of complex economic systems by identifying their essential properties. I then propose an epistemology that is based on the concepts of mechanism-based explanation, generative sufficiency, and an extended version of Uskali Mäki's concept of Models as Isolations and Surrogate Systems . I continue with some methodological considerations and argue that the method of 'Agent based computational economic modeling' must play a distinctive role for the analysis of complex economies. The second contribution of the theses shows how evolutionary-institutionalism can profit from a methodological transfer from complexity economics. In particular I argue that the method of 'Agent based computational modeling' can advance institutionalism both as a formalization device and by providing theoretical concepts that are useful for institutionalist theorizing itself. The theses closes by discussing a potential convergence of evolutionary-institutional and complexity economics and gives an outlook on avenues for further research.Dissertation511 206
