Specifically, it analyzes how the governance mechanisms of formal institutions are questioned, challenged and renegotiated through informal institutions. Whilst there is an emerging body of scholarship focusing on informal practices, this is scattered across a number of disciplines. This edited collection, by contrast, fosters a dialogue on these issues, moving away from monodisciplinary and normative methodologies that view informal institutions and practices simply as temporary economic phenomena. In doing so, the authors provide a wider understanding of how governance is composed of both the formal and the informal, which complement each other but are also constantly in competition. This novel approach will appeal to social scientists, economists, policy-makers, practitioners, and anyone else willing to widen their understanding of how governance works. 410 0$aInternational Political Economy Series,$x2662-2483 606 $aPolitical economy 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aSocial change 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 606 $aDevelopment Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913020 606 $aDevelopment and Social Change$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913030 606 $aRegional Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913050 606 $aDevelopment Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000 615 0$aPolitical economy. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aSocial change. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 14$aInternational Political Economy. 615 24$aDevelopment Policy. 615 24$aDevelopment and Social Change. 615 24$aRegional Development. 615 24$aDevelopment Economics. 676 $a339.5 702 $aPolese$b Abel$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWilliams$b Colin C$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHorodnic$b Ioana A$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBejakovic$b Predrag$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255296303321 996 $aThe Informal Economy in Global Perspective$92260397 997 $aUNINA
