Institutional Entrepreneurship in Adult Basic Education
Recent Theoretical Developments and Empirical Analyses
Using the neo-institutionalist concept of the institutional entrepreneur, this article examines the process of institutionalization in the field of adult literacy and basic education, which is in a process of structural development. The aim of the analysis is to identify relevant actors at the regional level of basic education and to reconstruct the projects in which they are involved. Another focus is on the applied skills that actors use to drive the process of institutionalization. The article is based on a secondary analysis of an interview-based study with experts from the field of basic education. The findings point to a field characterized by fragility, in which actors engage in diverse projects. Depending on the form of the project, different skills become relevant.
