The criteria used to select three among ten schools handled by the work took into account aspects aligned with organizational institutionalism. The first school analyzed was the entrepreneur school, which focuses on social actor, once it is admitted that he is able to affect the structure. Next, it was analyzed the position school that considers generic strategies to be implemented by organizations.

From the definition of this theoretical framework, this paper presents a new model to explain the formation of strategy from institutional and structural perspective, which is the main result of the work. The challengeis conducting empirical studies that describe this process from case studies that seek to explain the structureof strategyas a social practice at micro level of analysis.
