Mechanisms of isomorphism

Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Politics - Region: South Asia grade: 23 Bielefeld University (Fakultät für Soziologie) course: Grundrechte language: English abstract: This essay analyzes the question why the military regime of Myanmar recently makes efforts to give the country a constitution although it used especially the missing of a constitution for a stabilization of its power and would limit it through an installation of a constitution and the included basic rights. For a reply to this question I raise the new institutionalist world polity approach of John W. Meyer which is suitable to explain this apparently contradictory proceeding and also makes the political proceedings of the country in the past more distinct.
