The more one probes into the variety of meanings given to the word ‘institution’, the more difficult it becomes to arrive at one common conceptual core. We will employ the well-known Weber taxonomy over basic social science terms to show that it is far from evident what the connotation (meaning) and denotation (reference) of ‘institution’ is or should be. Asking for the connotation of a word focuses upon properties whereas asking for the denotation of a term pinpoints what the word stands for. From surveying the literature within neo-institutionalism, it is apparent that the word ‘institution’ may be either defined as a norm or it may be defined as an organization or a system of organs or offices.
E. through What is an institution? 37 the employment of sanctions in the form of group approval or disapproval – convention – or in the form of physical or psychological coercion – law (Weber 1978: 33–4). Maxims or norms that are connected with sanctions are called ‘institutions’. Maxims that are not institutions lack enforceability. In the rational choice approach to neo-institutionalism, institutions are looked upon as (or comply to) simple rules or norms. They constrain the actors, who take the existence of institutions into account when they orientate their behaviour.

Theoretical Section 1 What is an institution? Introduction The advent of the new institutionalism as a framework for social science analysis has been hailed as the kind of scientific revolution that one has had in mind when analysing theoretical developments in the natural sciences (Kuhn 1962). Since it is stated that the new institutionalism or neo-institutionalism is radically different from the old institutionalism, it is regarded by many as a radical innovation in the way in which social science concepts are to be framed as well as in the manner in which social science modelling is to be made.
