“After the Collapse: Spontaneous Institutionalization and the Emergence of Market Institutions”
Abstract:
We explore how, and under which conditions, market institutions can spontaneously arise after an institutional collapse. Drawing on emergence theory, we develop a multi-level model of institutional emergence after an extreme collapse, where only the individuals’ memories remain from pre-collapse institutions. We start with individuals seeking to transact, looking to decrease cost and increase trust in their transactions. At the micro-level, the multiplication of transactions can trigger processes of amplification-convergence and cancelation, through an activity- and a cultural-cognitive-based driver of institutionalization. At the meso-level, these processes result in the spontaneous emergence of legitimacy and power, organized agents shaping emergence, and the institutionalization of transaction attributes. At the macro-level, the amalgamation of compatible institutionalized attributes leads to the emergence of market institutions, with nine possible institutional infrastructures, which are shaped by the initial conditions of emergence. Our study contributes to the literature by isolating the role of spontaneous processes in institutional dynamics, by identifying the initial conditions necessary for the emergence of market institutions, and by showing how legitimacy and power can spontaneously emerge. We illustrate our reasoning with reference to refugee economies.

“Measuring Societal Impacts of Standards”

Abstract:
Society faces existential challenges, such as global warming,
demographic change and digital innovations. Standards help solving
problems and reaping opportunities. They have long been recognised as
important, from technological, business, and economic perspectives,
but clear evidence about their societal impact is still missing.
Against this background, we carried out this project to get a clearer
view of how standards impact society. We conducted a pre-study of 48
standards, reviewed academic literature on standards’ impact and its
measurement. We carried out eight in-depth case studies of particular
standards with 86 expert interviews, relevant documents, and other
sources. We identified the United Nations Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs) as a suitable framework to capture all dimensions of
societal impact, and adapted the “Theory of Change” approach to the
standardisation context to conceptualise how impact occurs. Based on
this, our eight case studies traced how the studied standards affect
society. In two cases, we found demonstrable impacts, whereas six
other cases demonstrated limited impact. From this, we conclude that
standards’ societal impacts depend on their alignment with various
factors in their ecosystems, such as regulatory requirements or their
relationship with other standards.
