Abstract

In recent decades, in both Europe and USA, economic sociology has moved away from strict concentration on individual firms, markets, and their representations in economic theory toward more generous and creative treatments of interpersonal relations and of economic activity in a wide variety of settings. The study of interpersonal care, both paid and unpaid, illustrates these trends.
