Problem: "Institutionalism" (Theory and Methods Ch. 4) Lowndes (2018) suggests that new institutionalism emphasizes informal conventions as much as formal rules. Identify a unique political institution and discuss the relationship between its specific rules and conventions as they influence political behavior. In what ways may they override one another, reinforce one another, and/or come into conflict? How might you explain or situate the four characteristics (p. 67) of this institution's rules and conventions as a researcher?
