Resumo: The theory of institutions and institutional change developed by Douglass North reserves a special role for culture, thus signaling a set of strategic research guidelines in some areas of knowledge: economic and development theory; economic historiography; regional/local development; planning, regulation, management and evaluation of public policies. This paper therefore presents in its concluding part a purposeful research agenda from North's seminal contribution. However, before preparing the ground for the achievement of the delineated objective, it presents the fundamental concepts of the author's theory of institutions and institutional change, establishing elements of structural analytical connectivity (institutions, organizations, institutional matrix and path dependence). It then presents the importance of culture in its theoretical construct, especially as the key to understanding the path dependence.

Por lo tanto, este documento presenta en su parte final una agenda de investigación útil a partir de la contribución fundamental de North. Sin embargo, antes de preparar el terreno para el logro del objetivo esbozado, presenta los conceptos fundamentales de la teoría del autor sobre las instituciones y el cambio institucional, estableciendo elementos de conectividad analítica estructural (instituciones, organizaciones, matriz institucional, dependencia de la trayectoria y ruptura institucional). . Luego presenta la importancia de la cultura en su construcción teórica, especialmente como la clave para entender la dependencia del camino.A teoria das instituições e da mudança institucional desenvolvida por Douglass North reserva um papel especial para a cultura, sinalizando, com isso, um conjunto de diretrizes estratégicas de pesquisas em algumas áreas do conhecimento: teoria econômica e do desenvolvimento; historiografia econômica; desenvolvimento regional/local; planejamento, regulação, gestão e avaliação de políticas públicas. Este artigo, portanto, apresenta em sua parte conclusiva uma agenda propositiva de pesquisas a partir da contribuição seminal de North. Todavia, antes, preparando o terreno para o alcance do objetivo delineado, apresenta os conceitos fundamentais da teoria das instituições e da mudança institucional do autor, estabelecendo elementos de conectividade analítica estrutural (instituições, organizações, matriz institucional e dependência da trajetória). Em seguida, apresenta a importância da cultura em seu constructo teórico, principalmente como a chave para a compreensão da dependência de trajetória.Departamento de Ciências Econômicas da UFMG2019-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/article/view/5813Nova Economia; Vol. 29 No. Especial (2019): Special Issue "Culture and Development"; 1359-1358Nova Economia; v. 29 n.
