Outline of Final Research Achievements

The aim of this study was to comprehend the relationship between “efficiency” and “institution” from the perspective of institutional theory. Although the relationship between efficiency and institutions has mainly been discussed in transaction cost theory, it is also important in institutional theory, developed as a starting point to decipher the works of Weber (1920, 1976).
This work explores the implications of institutional theory which can be called “mythic functions” (Meyer, 2008, p.795) of efficiency by explaining the relationship between efficiency and institutions. I observe the mystic functions of efficiency in the transactions of Japanese keiretsu (q.v. Asanuma, 1989), a unique form of transaction between assemblers and subcontractors in Japan, by examining the relationship surrounding a subcontractor who processes parts for assembling.
