How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Endogenizing institutions and institutional changes* (2007, background): “Therefore Greif (2006) aptly calls the parameters of the game-form the ‘quasi-parameters’ (although he does not employ the concept of the game-form explicitly).”
The social order of markets (2009, background): “The sociology of markets must be able to demonstrate its contribution to the understanding of these coordination problems relative to economic approaches that often address the very same questions, and which in their most advanced expressions have undergone a “sociological turn” (Greif 2006: XV).”
Social Capital, Human Capital and the Community Mechanism: Toward a Conceptual Framework for Economists (2009, background): “…capital has been a major concern of social scientists since Max Weber’s classic on the relationship between Protestantism and capitalism to the modern seminal study of comparative history on Mediterranean trade organisations across different cultural traditions by Avener Greif (1994; 2006).”
