Zusammenfassung

Was sich einem Historiker der Wirtschaftssoziologie umgehend offenbart, ist die Diskontinuität zwischen der klassischen Wirtschaftssoziologie, die ihren Höhepunkt mit Max Weber erreichte, und der zeitgenössischen Wirtschaftssoziologie, die Mitte der 1980er Jahre scheinbar aus dem Nichts und ohne jede erkennbare Verbindung mit der Vergangenheit entstanden ist. Bei näherer Betrachtung erscheint es jedoch kaum vorstellbar, dass die Neue Wirtschaftssoziologie, die sich unter diesem Begriff in den Vereinigten Staaten einen Namen gemacht hat, überhaupt keine Beziehung zur Vergangenheit gehabt haben soll. Dieser Aufsatz versucht, eine solche Verbindung offen zu legen und insbesondere zu zeigen, in welchem Ausmaß die zeitgenössische US-amerikanische Wirtschaftssoziologie an das Werk Max Webers anschließt.
