This paper presents an overview of recent research in neuroeconomics, in the light of the question how these relate to institutional economics. I present a critique of Glimcher's recent internalist standard model of neuroeconomics and put forward the claim that only an externalist approach can...

information generating and processing dynamics, which is driven by the internal selection of classificatory schemes of actions … chosen and the population level dynamics of sign selection, with mimetic behavior as a driver. This can be further analyzed … by means of the theory of signal selection. A central insight is that the internal information gap between acting self …

We posit that comparative advantage is discovered via alternative transactional regimes of trading. Transactional regimes are performative, based on different forms of embedded agency. The theory is applied on a study of Brazilian coffee business which manifests the increasing importance of...
