Relational Work in Market Economies

Politics & Society, 2012, vol. 40, issue 2, 135-144

Abstract: This article introduces the special issue on “Relational Work in Market Economies†by explaining the origins of the concept and its value in illuminating a dimension of market activity that has not been systematically addressed by social scientists. It also explains why this focus on individual economic transactions could be relevant for those whose interest centers on broader questions of political economy. Finally, there are brief descriptions of the other six articles that make up this special issue.
