Economics and Institutions by Geoffrey M Hodgson

Geoffrey Hodgson aims to demonstrate that social institutions play a central role in moulding preferences and guiding action.
"I think that this is a superb book.. what Hodgson has done is to bring together a wide range of themes, and weave them together in a particularly persuasive way. It is a must read for economists predisposed to question contemporary orthodoxy."
Richard R. Nelson, Review of Political Economy


"This is a landmark work in the evolution of institutional economics."
Public Choice

"This book is an excellent read. Written with great care, refreshing intellectual honesty and with a wide canvas of the relevant literature it should be on the “essential” reading lists of all final year and post-graduate economics students. It will also be of great interest to students of the other social sciences who would like a point of entry to the inner mysteries of the faith."
Norman Clark, University of Sussex

Geoffrey Hodgson is Research Professor in Business Studies at the University of Hertfordshire.
