“…Desta forma, capacidades e seus valores são fenômenos construídos socialmente, consumindo tempo, adicionando e rearranjando conexões entre os componentes. Assim, deve-se repensar os aspectos culturais e de hábito dos envolvidos de forma a promover o efetivo desenvolvimento das rotinas da capacidade (Amit & Schoemaker, 1993;Becker, 2008;Bingham et al, 2007;Bitar & Hafsi, 2007;Helfat & Peteraf, 2003;Kogut & Zander, 1992;Nelson & Winter, 1982;Pandža et al, 2003;Sanchez & Heene, 1997;Stevens, 1998) …”

“…Agents therein have limited memories and cognitive capacities and assume that the rationality of others is similarly bounded (Hodgson 2007b). The work of Nelson and Winter (1982) has already generated extensive discussion of the role of routines in storing information within organisations (Becker 2008). More broadly, generalised Darwinian principles point to the need to examine different mechanisms of information retention and transmission between institutions, and the conditions of informational replication that have the potential to generate greater complexity (Hodgson and Knudsen, in press).…”

A Philosophical Perspective on Contemporary Evolutionary Economics

There has been a remarkable growth in evolutionary economics since the 1980s. But despite this outward success there has been inner disagreement on fundamental issues including the building blocks of evolutionary theory and the very meaning of 'evolution' itself. This essay provides a philosophical perspective on both the defining agreements and ongoing disputes within evolutionary economics. Its primary emphasis is on ontology. It shows that some major disputes derive not from incompatible propositions but the choice of different levels of analysis. A route toward reconciliation of different viewpoints is thus exposed. The aim of this article is to examine the philosophical communalities and divergences that have been revealed in the literature. Seven sections follow. The first sketches the historical background. It notes that despite the looseness and imprecision of the term 'evolution', there is an identifiable international network or 'college' of 'evolutionary economists' whose work can be placed under philosophical scrutiny. The second section considers the philosophical differences in broad terms and directs attention to ontology as the basis of much relevant agreement and dispute. The third section considers a number of ontological communalities in evolutionary economics. It is followed by two sections on ontological divergences. Of these, the fifth section outlines the ontology of complex population systems. This lays the ground for the discussion of generalised Darwinism in the sixth section. The final section shows that some of the key disputes within evolutionary economics derive not from incompatible propositions but from different levels of abstraction within a single ontological framework. A strategy for the reconciliation of apparent differences is thus revealed.

“…Many people find it more productive to keep using an old, familiar technology than rapidly adapt to a new technology." Becker (2008) [2] suggested a possible function of organizational routines as a part of the family of concepts such as institutions, norms or conventions that can be the source of both stability and change. Davis (2009) [9] identified that the highly dynamic environments require flexibility to cope with a M A N U S C R I P T…”

Many in the industry see the ride-sharing company Uber as the crown jewel of information and communication technology (ICT) particularly of the digital service platform and sharing economy. Uber has been exploring the new frontier of the ICT-driven disruptive business model (IDBM) and succeeded in its global expansion to over 479 cities in more than 75 countries worldwide in June of 2016.Such rapid expansion provides constructive insights regarding the significance of IDBM, not only in transportation but also in almost all other business fields. While at the same time Uber's legal battles in some cities around the world raise a serious question regarding the rationale of IDBM.In light of such a question, this paper examined the institutional sources contrasting success and failure in Uber's global expansion.By the comparative empirical analysis, it was identified that the contrast could be attributed to a bi-polarization nature of ICT-driven logistic growth, and the success can be attributed to a co-evolutionary acclimatization that harnesses the vigor of counterparts.This analysis suggests the significance of IDBM with a consolidated challenge to social demand (CCSD); it demonstrated that a co-evolutionary acclimatization played a transformative role in this accomplishment.
