REVIEW ESSAY

Capturing markets? A review essay on Harrison White on producer markets

Karin Knorr Cetina

Department of Sociology, University of Konstanz, Box D-46, D-78457 Konstanz, Germany

Correspondence: karin.knorr{at}uni-konstanz.de

This essay explores White's arguments in Markets from Networks (2002), highlighting differences and analogies to economic models of markets and the complexity of White's approach. It argues that construing markets from the viewpoint of producer firms' market strategies may be theoretically limiting and politically inadequate in a world increasingly characterized by market mechanisms and by struggles over the definition of markets.

Key Words: markets • market profile • production markets • firms • JEL classification: L100 market structure, firm strategy, and market performance: general, P100 capitalist systems: general
