*How do people find jobs? What historical and social legacies affect prospects for development? How do art dealers know how to set prices on unique original works of art? What social arrangements influence economic inequalities? In what ways do people mix economic activities and intimacy? Why are there so many different varieties of mustard but not ketchup? Economic sociology provides insight into questions such as these by understanding economic activity as social activity. That is, people attribute meaning to economic activity and engage in these behaviors in relation to others, while at the same time these actions are patterned and organized. In this course, we survey the ways in which a variety of economic phenomena are shaped by, organized through, and grounded in social relations. In addition to class sessions discussing assigned readings, students complete three papers applying course content to a range of economic behavior (consumer products / shopping, national economic development, and how people negotiate economic action in their personal lives) and will complete a final course paper or a final exam.*
