Abstract

Institutional Economics relies on a practical understanding of decision making. Institutions, habits, and cumulative causation introduce not only information, but also how to make decisions. Today’s world offers new challenges for the practical comprehension of decisions. Since the end of the twentieth century, the internet has drastically increased the quantity of information available to a decision-maker. Furthermore, the beginning of the twenty-first century brought a boom in social networking, which changed interactions, habits building, institutional spreading, and emulative logic. This study thus aims to approach the twenty-first century information technology to Institutional Economics’ reading of decision making.

摘要

制度经济学依赖于对决策的实际理解。制度、习惯和累积因果关系不仅会引入信息，还会引入如何做出决策。当今世界对决策的实际理解提出了新的挑战。自 20 世纪末以来，互联网极大地增加了决策者可用的信息量。此外，21 世纪初带来了社交网络的繁荣，它改变了互动、习惯建立、制度传播和竞争逻辑。因此，本研究旨在将二十一世纪的信息技术与制度经济学对决策的解读相结合。
