This introductory article discusses a set of issues and approaches that have provided interesting results, and are most likely to prompt a number of researches in the next few years. It first looks at the research conducted on endogenous institutions, before focusing on legislative institutions. It looks at the revelation and aggregation of information, where the discussion is focused on the voters, particularly the voters who are uninformed in one way or another. One section covers the evolutionary models of human and political behaviour. The final section of the article discusses and considers the spread of political economy into new areas of research.
