De la question coloniale chez les anciens et néo-institutionnalistes

Abdallah Zouache

Revue d'économie politique, 2014, vol. 124, issue 1, 129-149

Abstract: This article examines how the colonial issue is considered in old and new institutionalism. In contrast with new institutionalism, old institutionalism examines colonialism in a racial framework. This article nevertheless reveals a conceptual convergence between both traditions around a culturalist explanation of institutional dynamics. Old and new institutionalism insists on the religious culture as an filter which led to the emergence of pro-growth institutions. This convergence illustrates the ambigüous relationship between race and culture in the institutionalist tradition.
