The second part of the book deals with institutional change. North first explores the nature of institutions and explains the role of transaction and production costs in their development. Yet, institutions vary widely in their consequences for economic performance some economies develop institutions that produce growth and development, while others develop institutions that produce stagnation. Continuing his groundbreaking analysis of economic structures, Douglass North develops an analytical framework for explaining the ways in which institutions and institutional change affect the performance of economies.Institutions exist due to the uncertainties involved in human interaction they are the constraints devised to structure that interaction.
