Abstract—
The institutional structure and framework is
important for every economy, especially for developing
countries. The most popular distinction is formal and informal
institutions. Also, an interesting question is who sanctions
rule-breaking? Government or society? So, internal vs external
institutions is present as a second dimension in the institutional
structure.
Considering both dimension of institutional structure
(formal vs informal, internal vs external) we get four types of
institutions. First goal of research is to measure a size for each
institutional type in the Georgian economy. We can use
different indicators, but most suitable for our research are
Global Competitiveness indexes. Also, dynamics of institutional
development is important to reach research aims.
Second point of interest is interactions between institutions,
which can be as complementary as conflicting. We can use
statistical methods to evaluate interactions between different
types of institutions. Different researches can be useful to
determine which specific institutions leads the process of
relationships formation between different types of institutions.
Index Terms—
Formal institutions, informal institutions,
