  After criticizing the research on new institutional theory for being biased toward the cognitive aspects of institutions, this study submits the following research questions. What roles do values play when individuals cope with institutional complexity? By focusing on values, we can not only capture a more complex picture of the individual, but we can also reveal the interaction between normative institutions and the individual. To address this research question, this study used a systematic review approach to summarize previous studies that focus on how individuals cope with institutional complexity. In this short paper, we report on our detailed research procedures and expected results.

  What are the institutional works that maintain institutionalized practices, while transforming institutionalized practices. This study investigates the history of the regulation of illegal production of unfiltered sake in Akita Prefecture to explore these questions. This study argue that the institutional works which reduce the visibility of the practice, maintain the norm and cognitive basis of the practice, and search the new material basis of the practice preserve the institutionalized practice, while making practice an underground practice, separating the regulatory basis of practice from its norm and cognitive basis, and diversifying the material basis of practice.

• The Loose Coupling Between Institutional Logics and Practice through the Design of Practice:A Quantitative Study on the Usage of Credit Insurance System by Shinkin Banks

  How different ideologies and values coexist, conflict, and complement each other in a particular practice. This study explores this issue based on a theoretical framework of institutional logic and practice. By fusing different theoretical assumptions about the relationship between institutional logic and practice, this research emphases the role of the institutional logic which is involved with the design process of the practice, when explaining the meanings given to the practice. This research quantitatively examined the meanings given to Japanese credit insurance system by Japanese government and Shinkin banks. Basing on the result, this research argues that institutional logic related to the design of the practice and institutional logic related to the embedment of the practice give the practice different meanings and these meanings are incommensurable. However, this research argues that the institutional logic of the former constrains the institutional logic of the latter through the design of practice. This study builds a framework that simultaneously considers different types of institutional logic that exist in historical and broad cultural contexts.

• When do Multiple Institutional Logics Become Complementary?:Quantitative Study on Shinkin Banks in Japan

  It is little known about how and when contradictory institutional logics can be complementary to each other. By quantitatively comparing whether difference practices of Shinkin banks would bring a different degree of complementarity between the communities' common interest and Shinkin banks' self-interest. I argue that how contradictory institutional logics were instantiated in practices would influence the complementarity between them. Furthermore, I argue that the complementary effect of different types of instantiation would be influenced by the proportion of different types of instantiations in the total cases of instantiations of the field.

  This research investigated how local norms and traditions interact with local organizational activities. During the research period, I conducted three research projects. In the first project, I analyzed how geographical characteristics of a region influence traditional behaviors. In the second project, I examined how the size of an organization affects local organizational activities. In the third project, I systematically integrated prior studies to understand how social norms and individual behaviors interact. Through these studies, we were able to better understand the mechanisms through which local norms and traditions work in concert with local organizational activities, which can be utilized to contribute to the development of local communities.
