市场社会学的逻辑起点与研究路径

The Logic Starting Point and Research Approaches of the Sociology of Market

围绕市场秩序何以可能的中心议题,社会学家摒弃了主流经济学里去历史性和非制度化的普遍市场模型,从市场的复杂性、历史性和制度化特征入手尝试去重新认识和解释市场现象,分析市场的社会建构过程和机制。这方面的努力促成了市场社会学的兴起和发展。起初,市场社会学沿着市场即网络、市场即制度和市场即文化三种主要研究路径分别往前推进。最近一些年,市场社会学在多元路径上继续发展的同时,呈现出视角交融的综合路径趋势。针对各自拟定的核心问题,综合路径糅合了以往处于分割状态或被忽视的若干维度,着力分析不同社会力量之间特定的关联模式是通过何种机制建构了市场。这种综合路径与古典社会学时代的市场研究相契合,是试图更完备地解释市场现象且颇具竞争力的路径。

Focusing on the formation of market order , sociologists abandoned the universal market model without historical and institutional features in mainstream economics , got to understand and interpret market phenomena from the complexity , historicity and institutionalization of market , and analyzed the social construction process and mechanism of market.The efforts in this respect advanced the sociology of market.In the emergence period , the sociology of market developed with three approaches that were market-as-network , market-as-institution and market-as-culture.In recent years , the sociology of market shows a trend of integration.Targeting at respective core issues and mixing those segmented or some ignored dimensions , the integrative approach concentrate on how particular interrelation model of different social forces constructs market.This kind of integrative approach , which resonates well with the classical sociology of market , is an path with competitive power and can interpret market phenomenon more properly.
