The Emergence of Institutions

Meer over het boek

The book explores institutions through an experiential and aesthetic-affective lens, emphasizing their self-sustaining and dynamic qualities. It challenges traditional views that attribute institutional changes solely to human actions, instead highlighting the influence of ideas, norms, and values that shape individuals unconsciously. By integrating insights from various thinkers, it presents a framework for understanding how institutions influence people long before they are consciously recognized, positioning institutions as powerful entities in their own right.
