Dear Paul, Congratulations, and thank you for this resource! As someone who does neoinstitutional theory on a regular basis, I struggle with how to teach my undergraduate (and graduate!) students what an institution looks like. Because they're "invisible", it's hard for them to grasp the concept (also hard to teach that institutions aren't the same as organizations!)
