Abstract

The article analyzes the genesis of the development of the informal institutions research in the paradigms of classical institutionalism, behavioralism and new institutionalism, as well as the most widespread classical and modern approaches to the definition of the informal institutions phenomenon. It is substantiated that theoretical and conceptual uncertainty exists in the contemporary political science discourse, which is characterized by the coexistence of diametrically opposed approaches to the informal institutions studying. In this regard, possible ways of forming a «methodologically balanced» approach to the phenomenon of informal institutions research are proposed.
