Economic sociology is the discussing of the social make and effect of various economic phenomena. a field can be broadly dual-lane into a classical period together with a advanced one, call as "new economic sociology".
The classical period was concerned especially with modernity together with its unit aspects, including rationalisation, secularisation, urbanisation, and social stratification. As sociology arose primarily as a reaction to capitalist modernity, economics played a role in much classic sociological inquiry. The particular term "economic sociology" was number one coined by William Stanley Jevons in 1879, later to be used in the workings of Émile Durkheim, Max Weber and Georg Simmel between 1890 and 1920. Weber's gain regarding the relationship between economics and religion and the cultural "disenchantment" of the advanced West is perhaps most iconic of the approach set forth in the classic period of economic sociology.
Contemporary economic sociology may put studies of any modern social aspects of economic phenomena; economic sociology may thus be considered a field in the intersection of economics and sociology. Frequent areas of inquiry in contemporary economic sociology include the social consequences of economic exchanges, the social meanings they involve and the social interactions they facilitate or obstruct.
