“…Still, although behaviour needs to be distinguished from institutions, both are related because institutions not practiced can vanish in the long term and codifications of rules that are ignored by agents can hardly qualify as institutions (Hodgson, 2006; see also Bathelt & Glückler, 2014;. The link between institutions, formal rules and policies, and informal conventions (Dupuy et al, 1989;Hodgson, 2006;North, 1990;Salais & Storper, 1992) is marked by contingency (Bathelt & Glückler, 2003, 2014 as different relationships between formal rules or policies and practiced institutions including reinforcement, substitution, circumvention, competition, coherence, compatibility, or complementarity can ensue (Bathelt & Glückler, 2014;Boyer, 2005;Glückler, 2020;Glückler et al, 2020;Glückler & Lenz, 2016;Zukauskaite et al, 2017). These contingent relationships bring with them contested processes of rule or policy implementation and related institutional leeway that accounts for the actual, partial, modified, or lacking transformation of rules and policies into institutions (Hall & Thelen, 2009; see also Streeck & Thelen, 2005).…”
