----------------- HES POSTING ----------------- If you think of sociology as dealing with large and small structures of interpersonal relationships, the sociology of economics has to do with the study of the organization of economists, e.g., their socialized motivations, hierarchical structure of esteem and sacrifice, and so on. It is an aspect of the methodology of economics, an aspect of the social nature and structure of science, an aspect of the study of economists as sets of interrelationships.
