Definition
editPolitical institutionalization means that political initiatives have been increasingly constrained by both formal and informal rules or norms.[7] And through the process of political institutionalization, the state-society nexus has been enhanced.[8]
Samuel Huntington defines political institutionalization as "the process by which organizations and procedures acquire value and stability",[9] and regards it as equivalent to political development.[10]
