Resumen
CABALLERO, Gonzalo. INSTITUTIONS AND ECONOMIC HISTORY: APPROACHES AND INSTITUTIONAL THEORIES. Rev.econ.inst. [online]. 2004, vol.6, n.10, pp.135-157. ISSN 0124-5996.
Recently, some papers have been published that examine the relation between economic history and institutional economics, and propose a closer relation between these two disciplines. This article shows how the theoretical and methodological foundations of the different institutionalist programs are enriching research in economic history, giving it more rigor. Furthermore, using papers from Hodgson, North and Greif, this article reviews the contributions of traditional institutionalism, New Institutional Economics and Historical and Comparative Institutional Analysis. It ends by proposing a research program that emphasizes the historical studies of institutions and enriches economic analysis. Economic history should not be seen as a subaltern discipline; it should be treated at the same level as economics, as Schumpeter wanted it.
