The initial premise is that markets are highly demanding arenas of social interaction, which can only operate if three inevitable coordination problems are resolved. I define these coordination prob- lems as the value problem, the problem of competition and the cooperation problem. I show that these problems can only be resolved based on stable reciprocal expectations on the part of market actors, which have their basis in the socio-structural, institutional and cultural embedding of markets.

  • Introduction Jens Beckert and Christine Musselin1 How Can We
    Introduction Jens Beckert and Christine Musselin1 How can we engage in a market relationship when the quality of the goods we want to acquire is unknown, invisible, or uncertain? This is the question addressed in this book. Each chapter focuses on situations where quality is highly uncertain: such situations provide excellent opportunities to analyze how quality is the outcome of a construction process involving producers, consumers, and market intermediaries. This book is a contribution to the study of the sociology of markets. We are interested in the role of “quality” for the development of markets. Here “quality” refers to the explicit and implicit, visible and invisible aspects of a good, service, or person being valued. Qualities create incentives or disincentives for purchasing decisions on markets. For market exchange to be possible, purchasers and suppliers of goods must be able to assess the qualities of a product in relation to other products. This holds true for consumer markets, labor markets, and investments. “How could we describe, in practice and theory, the structures of competition within the same market, or between related markets, if relations of similitude or dissimilitude between the goods that circulate could not be established?” (Callon, Méadel, and Rabeharisoa 2002: 196). Only by recognizing quality and perceiving differences in quality can purchasers make nonrandom choices and can the price differences between goods in a market be justified. “Quality” is not something that is naturally given, but the outcome of a collective process in which products become seen as possessing certain traits and occupying a specific position in relation to other products in the product space.

  • Imagined Futures: Fictional Expectations in the Economy
    Imagined futures: Fictional expectations in the economy Jens Beckert Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies Cologne Forthcoming: Theory & Society Biographical sketch Jens Beckert is Director of the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies in Cologne and Professor of Sociology at the University of Cologne. He has held visiting positions at Princeton University, Harvard University, Cornell University, the European University Institute, Sciences Po an the institut d’études avancées in Paris. The main focus of his research is economic sociology with a special emphasis on markets, organization studies, the sociology of inheritance and social theory. He is the author of two monographs on the sociology of markets (Princeton University Press 2002) and on the sociology of inheritance (PUP 2008). His articles have been published in journals such as Theory & Society, Sociological Theory, Organization Studies and the European Journal of Sociology. 1 Abstract Starting from the assumption that decision situations in economic contexts are characterized by fundamental uncertainty, the article argues that the decision-making of intentionally rational actors is anchored in fictions. "Fictionality" in economic action is the inhabitation in the mind of an imagined future state of the world and the beliefs in causal mechanisms leading to this future state. Actors are motivated in their actions by the imagined future and organize their activities based on these mental representations. Since these representations are not confined to empirical reality, fictional expectations are also a source of creativity in the economy. Fictionality opens up a way to an understanding of the microfoundations of the dynamics of the economy.

  • Interview with Jens Beckert
    UNCERTAINTY AND THE SOCIAL ORDER OF THE ECONOMY... 243 BEYOND EMBEDDEDNESS. ECONOMIC SOCIOLOGY AS A HISTORICAL THEORY OF SOCIETY: Interview with Jens Beckert For those less familiar with your work, could you describe the trajectory of your academic career? How did you become interested in economic sociology? How have your interests developed over the years? From the beginning of my university studies I was very interested in issues related to the economy. I started studying sociology in the late 1980s at the Freie Universität Berlin and took several courses in the fi elds of organization studies, industrial sociology, and industrial relations. It is worth mentioning that the 1980s was a time when the last waves of interest in Marxist sociology were quite visible at the Freie Universität (this changed after the collapse of the Berlin Wall). I also studied business administration as a second major. My interest in economic phenomena became even more pronounced at the beginning of the 1990s when I went to The New School in New York. I read there some of the literature on socio-economics and in the emerging fi eld of what became later known as the new economic sociology. I became interested in Amitai Etzioni’s book “The Moral Dimension” (Etzioni 1988) and I read for the fi rst time works by Mark Granovetter and Viviana Zelizer (Granovetter 1985; Zelizer 1988). You must remember that, although this work was already being published in the 1980s, there was not yet a fi eld called “new economic sociology”; the fi eld was still in the process of formation.

This article contributes to the development of a framework which Societies aims at an integrated perspective on the social structuring of markets and their dynamics. Based on the field concept, the article discusses the interrelations between the three types of structures as a source of the dynamics of markets. Bringing the complex and possibly contradictory character of the different social structures to the center of attention highlights spaces for innovation which are anchored in the social organization of markets but remain obscure in approaches that focus on only one of the structures.

  • Sociology of Markets
    Doctoral Seminar Sociology of Markets Jens Beckert / Pierre François Fall term 2012-2013 Syllabus General Introduction: Markets are the core institutions of capitalist economies. They have become the most important subject field in economic sociology during the last twenty years. From the sociological perspective, markets are not just an economic mechanism for the allocation of goods but are social institutions inseparably interwoven with the political, social, and cultural environments in which they operate. The seminar aims at providing students with conceptual equipment to deal with market phenomenon. The conceptual texts and case studies read in the seminar provide insights into the different approaches in economic sociology. The seminar will rely on extensive readings on classical and contemporary literature, presentations by instructors, students and by guest speakers, and on collective work. Seminar Organization: • The seminar will take place in Paris, in Sciences Po (199 Boulevard Saint Germain – 75007 Paris), from January 7th to January 11th. • Students must read all the “required readings” before the seminar. They must also read the papers presented by doctoral students on their projects. • It is recommended to read as many of the advised readings as possible. • Some students, more advanced in their PhD project, will have an opportunity to present their PhD.
