ABSTRACT
Institutions and ideas are fundamental and complementary elements of any social order. Especially APD scholarship has therefore suggested to analytically grasp social order as a multi-layered phenomenon. Historically evolving layers indicate social orders’ multidimensionality. Because such layers usually originate from different historical origins, they tend to co-evolve in an asynchronous pattern (Lieberman 2002; Falleti and Lynch 2009; Orren and Skowronek 1994, 2004; Sheingate 2014).
