cultural beliefs and the organization of society a historical and Theoretical Reflection on collectivist and individualist societies
Journal of Political Economy, 1994Co-Authors: Avner GreifAbstract:This paper integrates game-Theoretical and sociological concepts to conduct a comparative historical analysis of the relations between culture and institutions. It indicates the importance of culture, and in particular cultural beliefs, in determining institutions, in institutional path dependence, and in forestalling intersociety successful adoption of institutions. Examination of institutional change in two premodern societies from the Muslim and the Latin worlds yields that their distinct institutional structures resemble those found by social psychologists to differentiate contemporary developing and developed economies. This suggests the historical importance of distinct cultures and the related societal organizations in economic development. Copyright 1994 by University of Chicago Press.

The Case Against External Explanations of Tort Law: Can Antecedent Values Divine the Deep Structure of Tort Law?
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2009Co-Authors: Avihay DorfmanAbstract:In this paper I discuss the prevailing approach in Theoretical Reflection about tort law, namely, the tendency to explain its normative structure by reference to values and goals that do not distinctively originate in the engagements that tort law engenders between its constituents. I seek to show that this form of explanation – external explanation – suffers from an important structural deficiency. In particular, I argue that external explanations may lack the normative resources to explain tort law, even on their own respective terms. My analysis reveals that the key to the deep structure of tort law might not be found in abstract economic models or ideals of justice. Rather, it may be found in the freestanding value of the relationship that tort law engenders between care-discharger and cared-for and between defendant-tortfeasor and plaintiff-victim.

ethnographic fallacies Reflections on labour studies in the era of market fundamentalism
Work Employment & Society, 2013Co-Authors: Michael BurawoyAbstract:Michael Burawoy reflects back on 40 years of industrial ethnography in Zambia, the USA, Hungary and Russia to discover the mistakes he made and, thus, to infer the fallacies to which ethnography is subject. He traces these fallacies not to any ‘Theoretical imposition’ but to inadequate Theoretical Reflection. All methodologies are fallible and scholars should spend more time examining the limitations of their own methodologies and less time attacking the limitations of others.
