چکیده

Dear reader, In the last two issues we have turned to adjacent fields and looked at anthropology and economics. In this issue we zoom in on geography. From this glance we suggest that at least these three disciplines are getting increasingly " sociological ". Sociological ideas, theories, concepts, and ways of reasoning are being used also outside of sociology. We also argue that sociologists can benefit from looking at works by scholars from adjacent fields. The similarity in basic scientific reasoning of particularly some branches of economic sociology, economic anthropology, and economic geography is substantial, which suggests that closer cooperation should not be difficult. In this issue, we have an article on economic geography that we have written together with Dominic Power, an Irish born geographer based in Uppsala in Sweden. In addition to this, there is the thematic interview with Professor Gernot Grabher. There is a comment by Laurence Moss, the editor of American Journal of Economics and Sociology , a journal which despite its clearly non-European base, has harboured many articles by European sociologist and fostered debates between economists and sociologists, comments on economic sociology. This issue contains book reviews solicited by the book review editor, Brooke Har-rington. The books reviewed in this issue all reflect the chance that scholars have to step back and reflect on the foundations of our discipline(s). By the same token, we know that a close examination of the taken-for-granted can often stimulate new insights. In that spirit, we have chosen to review three books in this issue that each take a core term within economic sociology as their subject: wealth, the market and capitalism. It has been a great pleasure to be the editor for the last three issues, a task I have done in close association with Sebastian Kohl. The two of us are now handing over the task to the new editor, Andrea Mennicken. I would, finally, very much like to welcome her, and we are all looking forward to the fall issue. If you already now want to contact her, this is her e-mail:
