This paper discusses the three approaches within economic history that utilizes micro-economic
theory to examine institutions, their nature, change, and efficiency: the Neo-classical
Economics approach, the New Institutional Economic History approach, and Historical
Institutional Analysis approach. The focus is on methodology and general results
rather than on any specific conclusions regarding institutions in particular historical
episodes. Most of the survey is devoted to elaborate on the recent development of
Historical Institutional Analysis.
