ABSTRACT | This presentation outlines a neo-structural approach to institutional entrepreneurship. Network analyses are shown to be particularly useful in identifying actors who punch above their weight in politics thanks to their high, inconsistent (i.e. characterized by conflicts of interests) and cross-level social status. An empirical case focusing on the difficult emergence of a European intellectual property regime is used to illustrate this approach.
Countries with persistent identity-based divisions (e.g. ethnic divides) need political systems that provide for the inclusion of all groups. We are interested in inclusive regimes in non-democratic countries with identity-based divisions, termed Consociational Oligarchies. Consociational Democracies are political regimes that accommodate the elites of different groups. The claim that consociationalism leads to democratisation and resolves conflicts in divided places is widely accepted.
