随着体制和治理结构在现代市场中的发展，它们往往会对经济活动产生“反馈”作用。通过这种反馈循环，市场和政治舞台可以共生地发展成相对一致的“场”，逐渐嵌入行为者的取向和活动。利用这些见解，本文开发和测试欧洲一体化的理论，重点是欧洲共同体的情况下，欧盟的第一个支柱。贸易商、有组织的利益集团、法院和欧共体的决策机构，随着时间的推移，产生了一个自我维持的因果系统，推动了欧洲市场和政体的建设。在结论中讨论了这种解释对市场社会学和政治建设项目的普遍性。
As institutions and governance structures develop in modern markets, they tend to “feed back” onto economic activity. Through such feedback loops, market and political arenas can develop symbiotically into relatively coherent “fields” that gradually embed actors’ orientations and activities. Using these insights, this article develops and tests a theory of European integration focusing on the case of the European Community, the first pillar of the European Union. Traders, organized interests, courts, and the EC’s policy‐making organs, over time, have produced a self‐sustaining causal system that has driven the construction of the European market and polity. The generality of this explanation to a sociology of markets and polity‐building projects is discussed in the conclusion.
