Brayden posted a useful comment to today’s piece on economic sociology. I followed the link and found an interesting blog, Pub Sociology, and a post on the Globe article that offers more, another example of the usefulness of comments and trackbacks to expand on an issue.
Hi --
Economics are a social science. Hence, 'economic sociology' seems a bit odd. Hopefully it’s not pure semantics, but it has always been a bit disturbing that folks separate economics and sociology. We are facing a profound reconfiguration of work and wealth production that is fundamentally social. The social reorientation of work is understood by few, essential to all.
Cheers,
