Research Cases

The IGRI Research Case provides a one-page summary of a scholarly work (typically a journal article) that engages the Institutional Grammar. It is designed to highlight the publication’s most essential takeaways, including the research topic and main findings, and to encourage readers to consult the original work for more information. The goal of the IGRI Research Case is to present research on the Institutional Grammar in an easily understood manner that is accessible to scholars and practitioners new to or unfamiliar with the Grammar and/or institutional analysis.
