Este artículo realiza un breve estado de la cuestión de la investigación sobre la calidad institucional desde perspectivas sociológicas. Partiendo de la concepción de institución propia de esta disciplina, se han seleccionado dos grupos de trabajos que son útiles para conocer cómo los rasgos institucionales influyen en algunos aspectos de las organizaciones o agregados de ellas. En primer lugar, los estudios que se ocupan de la confluencia de elementos de la estructura social y la cultura en sectores de actividad de países o áreas territoriales, particularmente presente en la sociología del desarrollo. En segundo lugar, los trabajos que se centran más en la faceta cultural de las organizaciones. Aunque ambas corrientes comparten asunciones teóricas e intereses de investigación, están poco conectadas en la literatura que estudia las instituciones desde el punto de vista de su rendimiento social. Sin embargo, ofrecen resultados empíricos complementarios. A partir de su comparación se obtiene una aproximación de las aportaciones de la sociología al estudio de la calidad institucional, lo que a su vez facilita identificar retos para futuras investigaciones y colaboraciones con otras disciplinas.
