Explores concepts of power, efficiency, sociality, and time, each of which is key to understanding institutions. Since the four logics are closely tied to four different disciplines, the authors' integrated approach speaks to several distinct disciplines all while it promotes interdisciplinary conversations.

Why do institutions emerge, change, persist and die? This book addresses one of the central issues in the social sciences and beyond. Offering a new theoretical approach with illustrations from global commerce, it will appeal to students and scholars of international relations, politics, sociology, economics, law and public policy.

Using multiple methods and original data, this book develops a theory of everyday politics with respect to rules - procedural politics - and applies it to European Union integration and politics. It paints a much fuller picture of the role of rules in political life than is available in most existing work.
