Wilkinson, John (2020)In: Revista Brasileira de Informação Bibliográfica em Ciências Sociais 91(1), pp. 1-26.http://www.anpocs.com/index.php/bib-pt/bib-91ABSTRACT“The New Economic Sociology (NES) in Germany has many similarities to economic sociology in the United States in its conscious efforts to institutionalize its presence within the broader sociological community, in its promotion of a canon via handbooks, and its focus on the sociology of markets. At the same time, it differentiates itself in its stronger connections to the classics of German sociology, in the greater vitality of a macro-sociological tradition in Germany, the prior existence of a “bridging” generation of economic sociologists, and its later consolidation in a period of neo-liberal globalization, all of which have given NES in the German-speaking world a distinctive character. On the other hand, it has been influenced by successive waves of French economic sociology – Bourdieu, convention, and actor-network theory – and its bilingual academic tradition has ensured its integration into the English-speaking NES.”
