ABSTRACT:
The article is devoted to considering the problems of conditionality, essence and parameters of the research of informal political institutions. It is stated that informal political institutions are quite important in structuring the political process and cover many issues that are not in the field of the operationalization by formal political institutions. The author argued that informal political institutions are characterized by different causes of conditionality, different sources of institutional change, different mechanisms of changes and modification (in the framework of formation and functioning) and variable rates of change. As a result, it is proved that various causes of conditionality, evolution and development, as well as the causes and mechanisms of formation of informal political institutions, determine the heterogeneity of the latter, and therefore they can be structured.
