"Institutions are dynamic entities. This paper focuses on the
dynamics of institutional change in an attempt to identify some of the main variables that can affect change. On the one hand, it argues that in the study of these dynamics, both formal and informal institutions do matter. On the other hand, it suggests that multiple factors, having both an endogenous and an exogenous, origin can be identified when trying to explain processes of institutional change, and that such factors can account for changes at various levels and scales of the institutional structure. This paper also provides some empirical evidence from the study of the transformation of the Mula huerta in
Murcia, Spain to illustrate how institutional changes do operate in practice. In this case, the changes introduced to the existing institutions that regulated the property and use of water have led to a deep transformation of the management practices of irrigation and improved the conditions for the sustainability of a common pool resource." |
