| About the Seminar |
|
Inaugurated at the MIT Sloan School of Management in 1997, the
Economic Sociology Seminar aims to be the home for cutting-edge
economic sociology in the greater Boston social science research
community. Since 2003, the seminar has been jointly run by faculty
from the Sloan School's Economic Sociology
Program and the Harvard Department of
Sociology. Meeting at MIT and Harvard in alternating weeks during
the academic year, presenters and participants represent a diverse
array of theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches.
What we share is a commitment to engage the array of research that has
recently come under the heading of economic sociology and thereby to
improve upon existing models of organizations, markets, and other key
economic institutions.
