Abstract

In der Debatte über die Pluralisierung der Volkswirtschaftslehre sind Beiträge aus der Nachbardisziplin der Soziologie bisher kaum aufgegriffen worden. Dabei hat sich hier mit der Neuen Wirtschaftssoziologie ein Forschungsstrang etabliert, dessen Selbstverständnis dezidiert in einer kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit der Neoklassik verankert ist. So bietet die Neue Wirtschaftssoziologie diverse Anknüpfungspunkte für die heterodoxe Kritik am Mainstream. Vor allem im Hinblick auf das mikroökonomische Gleichgewichtsgewichtsmodell der Neoklassik liefert die Neue Wirtschaftssoziologie wichtige Erkenntnisse, welche die Funktionsweise von Märkten nicht nur anhand des Preismechanismus erklären. Die Analyse offenbart gleichwohl ganz deutlich, dass eine umfassende Anschlussfähigkeit der Neuen Wirtschaftssoziologie an die heterodoxe Kritik nur bedingt gegeben ist. Die methodologischen Unterschiede zwischen den Wirtschaftswissenschaften und der (Wirtschafts-)Soziologie zeigen die Grenzen einer soziologischen Mainstreamkritik.
