"Economic sociology was once considered an interdisciplinary study, but it has come into its own as a powerful tool to use in understanding the complex relations between economies and societies, including the impact of social, political and cultural behaviors on economies. Entries cover a range of subjects in the field, including democracy and economy, ecology, gender, globalization, industrial relations, law, markets, organization theory, political economy, religious influence, social capital, the state, trust and work, as well as a number of biographies of practitioners and theorists. Although intended for reference for students and business practitioners, the entries are of sufficient length to allow this volume to serve as a supplemental text for economic sociology classes. Entries are signed, cross-referenced and include brief bibliographies."
