The New Economic Sociology: A Reader,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Economic sociology is a rapidly expanding field, applying sociology's core insightthat individuals behave according to scripts that are tied to social rolesto economic behavior. It places homo economicus (that triedandtrue fictive actor who is completely rational, acts only out of selfinterest, and has perfect information) in context. In this way, it places a construct into a framework that more closely approximates the world in which we live. But, as an academic field, economic sociology has lost focus. The New Economic Sociology remedies this.The book comprises twenty of the most representative and widely read articles in the field's historyits classicsand organizes them according to four themes at the heart of sociology: institutions, networks, power, and cognition. Dobbin's substantial and engagingly written introduction (including his rich comparison of Yanomamo chestbeaters and Wall Street bondtraders) sets a clear framework for what follows. Gathering force throughout is Dobbin's argument that economic practices emerge through distinctly social processes, in which social networks and power resources play roles in the social construction of certain behaviors as rational or optimal. Not only does Dobbin provide a consummate introduction to the field and its history to students approaching the subject for the first time, but he also establishes a schema for interpreting the field based on an understanding of what economic sociology aims to achieve.
