This article outlines the virtues of a usually unturned stone in the field of institutionaltheories, i.e. a political institutionalism. By rejecting the emerging approaches centredon existing institutions as a reference model for a political version of institutionalismand by moving away from the more time-tested sociological and legal versions of it, thepolitical institutionalism that this article sketches is based on three main tenets: 1) theinterstitial character of institutional practices; 2) the normative relevance of customarynorms (as both the final outcome of the institutional process and an orienting principlefor interpreting the law); 3) the irreducibly political – that is, essentially non-juridical– essence of a given set of normative contexts (or eventually a given set of contextualprinciples and criteria deeply influencing any normative context). In addition, thearticle aims at carving out the proper place of political institutionalism in currentpolitical scholarship by emphasizing three analytical tools that can be of some helpin dealing with the process of formation and decay of political institutions (be theybroadly or narrowly conceived).
