Disrupting path dependency: Making room for Indigenous knowledge in river management
Global Environmental Change, 2019Scholars frequently identify how path dependency serves to constrain the process of climate adaptation and is a key feature of maladaptation. Most studies, however, centre on theoretical, rather than empirical-based discussions of what path dependency is,

This short paper explains the theory of path dependence and clarifies its relation to concepts such as positive feedback or lock-in, arguing that path dependence is a core theoretical element of political economy in general, and institutional and evolutionary economics in particular.

A plasticity constitutive model is proposed to simulate the monotonic and cyclic behavior of granular soil–structure interfaces. The model is built on two-surface plasticity models previously developed for interfaces between gravelly soils and structural

The concept of path dependence has been popularized by economic historians and is now widely employed in economics, history, political science, sociology, and geography to describe systems and processes that are governed by their own history. More formally, a path-dependent system or process is characterized by nonergodicity, a term taken from the ...

Hi Larry! I can’t tell you how honored I am to be invited by the JHPPL editor to engage in this dialogue with you. We read your work in graduate school! And as I surely expected, you render a powerful critique of me and others who use path dependency to illuminate the properties of policy change as it unfolds over time — linear or not.

Hysteresis is a widely reported phenomenon in natural and engineered systems across different temporal and spatial scales. Its definition is non-unique and rather context-dependent, while systems with hysteretic behavior, including hydrological systems ...

Path dependence and path creation
Accounting, Auditing & Accountability Journal, 2009PurposeThis paper aims to analyze so‐called sustainability, corporate social responsibility or citizenship reports, as artefacts of a compromise between an institutional entrepreneur (IE), the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), and companies. Some companies take on this invitation but to which extent the information they produce as a result corresponds
