Abstract

In the expansive realm of social sciences, institutionalism serves as a foundational theoretical framework, meticulously examining how institutions exert influence and shape societal structures. This study, rooted in the premise that functionalist differentiation theory, facilitates the identification, analysis, and redefinition of issues within social structures, delves into the intricate interplay between social structure and institutional logics. Employing a meta-cognitive and analytical descriptive and reflective methodology, grounded in an extensive review of conceptual, theoretical, and empirical literature, the research elucidates that social structures and institutional logics play crucial roles in institutions, despite not seamlessly aligning or integrating. The study underscores that these relationships, while pivotal, often give rise to contrasting institutions, perpetuating institutional dysfunctions, and paradoxes within societies.
