Abstract: Whether we recognize it or not it is evident that the Internet is full of new and innovative institutional forms that are revolutionizing social organization on and offline. Issues of governance in these Internet platforms and other digital institutions have presented a challenge for software engineers, most of whom have little exposure to the history or theory of institutional design. Game Servers We present a useful framework with an aim to encourage dialogue between computer scientists as well as political scientists. A behavioral engineering model that is focused on incentives and a variety of atheoretical approaches like A/B testing and incremental issue-driven programming have been the predominant guidelines for the design of digital institutions. One institutional analysis framework that has been useful in the design of traditional institutions is the body of resource governance literature , also known as the "Ostrom Workshop". One of the most important conclusions of this literature, which has yet to be fully integrated into the design of a variety of new institutions is the importance of including participatory process mechanisms in what is referred to as an "constitutional" layer of institutional design. This basically defines rules that permit and allow diverse stakeholder participation in institutional design changes. We explore to what extent this principle is being met or could be better satisfied in three distinct instances of digital institutions: cryptocurrencies cannabis informatics and amateur Minecraft server governance. We can illustrate the significance of constitutional layers in a variety of types of digital institutions by studying such diverse cases. Game Servers
