Resumo: The main characteristic of new economic sociology, which has been mor and more prestiged in the USA and Europe recently, is to study markets as social constructions rather than as abstract balance mechanisms. Far from opposing to economic science procedures, this trend is shared by some of its most influential exponents. It is true that contemporary economics corresponds to the widely believed reputation that it is a grey and mechanical science, unable to incorporate ethical principles to its basis. However, an important part of economics is geared towards the study of concrete ways of social interaction, and questions the merelyselfish and maximizing motivations axiomatically postulated by the neoclassical tradition. Among these currents new institutional economics stands out. Its issues are the object of new economic sociology. In spite of their different approaches, both contribute to prevent markets from being faced as magical solutions to all social problems or as demonized ways of interaction which human emancipation will eventually do away it.

Far from opposing to economic science procedures, this trend is shared by some of its most influential exponents. It is true that contemporary economics corresponds to the widely believed reputation that it is a grey and mechanical science, unable to incorporate ethical principles to its basis.

In spite of their different approaches, both contribute to prevent markets from being faced as magical solutions to all social problems or as demonized ways of interaction which human emancipation will eventually do away it. A principal característica da nova sociologia econômica, que ganha prestígio crescente nos Estados Unidos e na Europa, é estudar os mercados não como mecanismos abstratos de equilíbrio, mas como construções sociais. Essa orientação, entretanto, longe de opor-se aos procedimentos da ciência econômica, é também partilhada por alguns de seus mais importantes expoentes. É bem verdade que a economia contemporânea faz jus à reputação tão difundida de ciência cinzenta, mecânica e incapaz de incorporar preceitos éticos a seus pressupostos. Mas parte importante e cada vez mais significativa da disciplina se volta justamente ao estudo de formas concretas de interação social e questiona as motivações puramente egoístas e maximizadoras postuladas axiomaticamente pela tradição neoclássica. Entre essas correntes destaca-se a nova economia institucional, cujos temas são objeto também da nova sociologia econômica. Apesar de suas diferenças de abordagem, ambas contribuem para evitar que mercados sejam encarados como soluções mágicas a todos os problemas sociais ou como formas diabolizadas de interação que a emancipação humana acabará um dia por suprimir.Universidade de São Paulo.
