CARDENAS, Ernesto  y  OJEDA, Jaír. NEW INSTITUTIONAL ECONOMICS AND IMPLEMENTATION THEORY. Rev.econ.inst. [online]. 2002, vol.4, n.6, pp. 153-169. ISSN 0124-5996.

This paper shows how some of the most important concepts of the New Institutional Economics (NIE) can be expressed in terms of Implementation Theory (IT). First, it explains some of the expressions used by the NIE, such as institutions, transaction costs, property rights and methodological individualism. Afterwards, it gives a wide definition of the IT in order to establish correspondences between both theories.
