Reviews
"Many textbooks in economic sociology are either too difficult or too generic for undergraduates. This book strikes the right balance between academics and accessibility that allows students to grapple with the material. The book provides excellent elaboration and summary of theoretical perspectives in economic sociology. It engagingly uses current events and historical examples to demonstrate the power of those perspectives. As a scholar of Soviet and post-Soviet Russia, Hass brings unique insight into questions of economic sociology, including socialist alternatives to capitalism and the evolution of globalization. The broad canvas of the book helps students to think comparatively about the economy rather than focus on historically-specific instances in venues they are more familiar with." Andrew Buck, Chair of Sociology, University of Southern Indiana, USA "Hass promises to explore the politics and assumptions on which much of our economic life is based. He does this and suggests how economic sociology can improve our understanding of our contemporary world. Brilliantly researched and lucidly written." Miguel Centeno, Professor of Sociology and International Affairs, Princeton University, USA "Jeff Hass' book on Economic Sociology is not just an excellent introductory text on this increasingly prominent field, but a deep and well-crafted sociological critique of the economic fundamentalism that permeates the political debates of our times. Hass' book teaches us about the importance of power, organizations, fields, institutions, and cultures for understanding how economies operate differently under alternative social and political contexts. While many economists see society as a constraint to the economy, Hass convincingly argues that the economy is part of society and cannot exist without it. The book has many layers and will be of use to different types of readers - undergraduate students on a first contact with this field, economists who want to get familiarized with the sociological critique of economic theory and reflect on their own work, or policy analysts and practitioners who seek to better adapt their economic policies to the needs and customs of the people whom they aim to serve."

Synopsis
Economic Sociology, 2nd edition, shows how economies are more than supply-and-demand curves, individual profit motives, and efficient performance: they are forms of power and structure, grounded in institutions and culture., Economic Sociology provides the clearest and most comprehensive account of the promises of economic sociology. It shows how economies are more than supply-and-demand curves, individual profit motives, and efficient performance: they are forms of power and structure, grounded in institutions and culture. What is calculated, how, and why? Are profit and efficiency always so central to economic structures and outcomes? What shapes change and reproduction in economic practices and policies? How have classes and states, using power and institutions, created and continue to shape the economic world we live in? This second edition presents a critical and sophisticated yet approachable analysis of economic behavior and phenomena. After describing key concepts and logics of economic sociology and of economics (its eternal cousin and competitor), Hass turns the sociologist's analytic eye to the heart of economic practices comparing how they work in the United States, Europe, East Asia, Latin America, and post-socialist Russia and China. The volume addresses crucially important economic issues that touch our well-being and justice: the rise and structuring of capitalism; relations between states and economies; economic policies; economies and inequality; and organizations and corporations. Causes and consequences of globalization and the Great Recession are laid out for the reader. With economics and economic sociology placed side-by-side in this journey of how economies operate in the past and present, the reader gets different perspectives on economic reality. Power and culture, institutions and fields, classes and corporations interact on this historical and global stage. Written in a clear and direct style, this textbook will appeal to students and scholars in economic sociology, sociology of work, economics, social policy, political economy and comparative sociology, Economic Sociology provides the clearest and most comprehensive account of the promises of economic sociology.

They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
