    • Abstract:
      Following Douglas North, neo-institutionalists claim that institutions are the "primary" cause of economic development, "deeper" than the factors identified by marxism as "forces of production". Yet while the conclusions are different, the historical narratives differ little across these perspectives. The article discusses how such conclusions are derived and argues that is improper the claim for a "causal primacy"; institutions and development are mutually endogenous and the most one can hope for is to identify their reciprocal impacts.

    • Abstract:
      Seguindo Douglas North, os autores neoinstitucionalistas afirmam que as instituições são as causas "primordiais" do desenvolvimento econômico, "mais profundas" do que os fatores identificados pelo marxismo como "forças de produçãao". Embora essas duas perspectivas cheguem a conclusões diferentes, suas narrativas históricas pouco diferem. Este artigo discute como tais conclusões são deduzidas e argumenta que é equivocada a proposição de uma "primazia causal"; instituições e desenvolvimento são mutuamente endógenos e o máximo que se pode pretender é identificar seus impactos recíprocos.
