Immergut will hold a talk in the framework of the SPS Departmental Seminar Series. March and Olsen’s pathbreaking 1984 article launched an institutionalist wave in political science as well as in political sociology. Nearly forty years later, we are in the midst of a behaviouralist wave. The question for us now is whether this will be a reverse wave or a wave forward that unites the insights of the institutionalist and behaviouralist perspectives. This presentation will take stock of where we are on a meta-theoretical level, drawing both on classical social thought and on recent empirical applications to argue for the great potential inherent in synthesizing these approaches.
