sociology of business associations  

Definición

  • Sociologists often divide business associations into two categories: (1) associations whose aim is to generate economic value by producing or trading goods or services and to make a profit from those activities and (2) associations that without their own production nevertheless serve the economic interests of their members. The latter, representing certain branches of industry, have a political dimension aimed at the public, lobbying government agencies, analyzing and formulating the common interests of the branch, and informing the members and supporting their activities in certain cases.
