    Episode 8: Toward a Cultural Sociology of Taxation, with Ruth Braunstein

    Ruth Braunstein (University of Connecticut) talks with us about her article, "Toward a cultural sociology of taxation," which brings a relational sociology approach to bear on a subject that is typically the preserve of fiscal sociology. In this episode, we discuss scaling up relational economic sociology, battles over framing debates on taxation, and how all this overlaps with the sociology of religion. https://doi.org/10.1093/ser/mwae017
