Abstract

This study demonstrates theoretically at which level the social capital and embedded relationships can be beneficial for institutional entrepreneurs to achieve institutional change. For this purpose, a model is proposed, based on three propositions, to examine the effectiveness of the social capital possessed by institutional actors to attain institutional change. In this way two different fields-mainly institutional theory and social network theory-are combined in order to further explain institutional change.
