Institutions Produce Their Bearers: Endogenous Capability Formation in Evolutionary Legal Theory
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: A theoretical bridge paper connecting dynamic capability formation, evolutionary legal theory, institutional extended phenotypes, evolutionary game dynamics, and the legally structured production of observable cases. It proposes a falsifiable time-indexed architecture while separating theoretical extension from empirical validation. Conceptual preprint. No empirical validation is claimed. Perplexity and OpenAI Codex assisted with bibliographic exploration, formal alternatives and preliminary drafting; responsibility for the thesis, verification, interpretation and final text remains with the author.
