| Research Abstract |
Institutional Economics assumes that economic agents adopt custom based behavior, that is different from neoclassical economics. This fact means that the economic agent of institutional economics is not autonomous agent who makes his decisions dependent on the other economic agent. And this research project investigates that institutional economics can be founded on the philosophy of Pragmatism and inter-subjective theory of Wataru Hiromatsu.
