Are religions influenced by economics? Are economics influenced by religions? If so, how - and why? Faith in Markets? charts the intersection between faith and economics in Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It draws on the thoughts of Adam Smith, Emile Durkheim, Friedrich Hayek and Sir Thomas More, whilst also examining the teachings of Moses, Jesus and Mohammed. Collating a series of essays that first appeared in the academic journal Economic Affairs, it traces the development of Abrahamic faiths through the lens of social science and illustrates how, in the secular world, the pathways between faith and economics have diverged. It examines the frictions between modern-day social thought and religion and, crucially, asks whether these two worlds can ever re-establish links in the future.

Early Islam and the Birth of Capitalism proposes a strikingly original thesis—that capitalism first emerged in Arabia, not in late medieval Italian city states as is commonly assumed.Early Islam made a seminal but largely unrecognized contribution to the history of economic thought; it is the only religion founded by an entrepreneur. Descending from an elite dynasty of religious, civil, and commercial leaders, Muhammad was a successful businessman before founding Islam. As such, the new religion had much to say on trade, consumer protection, business ethics, and property. As Islam rapidly spread across the region so did the economic teachings of early Islam, which eventually made their way to Europe.Early Islam and the Birth of Capitalism demonstrates how Islamic institutions and business practices were adopted and adapted in Venice and Genoa. These financial innovations include the invention of the corporation, business management techniques, commercial arithmetic, and monetary reform. There were other Islamic institutions assimilated in Europe: charities, the waqf, inspired trusts, and institutions of higher learning; the madrasas were models for the oldest colleges of Oxford and Cambridge. As such, it can be rightfully said that these essential aspects of capitalist thought all have Islamic roots.

Benedikt Köhler stellt die Frage nach der soziologischen Verortung des (post-)kolonialen Kosmopolitismus. Er fragt nach den strukturellen Merkmalen sowie den empirischen, methodologischen und normativen Implikationen. Vor dem Hintergrund des Vergleichs von alten und neuen Formen des Kosmopolitismus soll ein historisch-taxonomisches Modell des kosmopolitischen Denkens entwickelt werden, das es erlaubt, Forschungsfragen zu gewinnen, mit deren Hilfe kosmopolitische Theorien soziologisch analysiert und beschrieben werden können.

Das Auftauchen riesiger Konzerne mit Tochterfirmen in vielen Regionen der Welt ist eines der bemerkenswertesten Phänomene der Globalisierung gegen Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts. Diese Wirtschaftseinheiten lassen sich nicht anhand der herkömmlichen Kriterien "inländisch" und "ausländisch" definieren, da sie weder national noch global, sondern transnational sind.Benedikt Köhler untersucht die von der United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) jährlich veröffentlichten Strukturdaten der 100 größten transnationalen Konzerne und entwickelt Indikatoren der Transnationalisierung bzw. der "inneren Globalisierung", die anzeigen, in welchem Maße ein Konzern Strukturen, Operationen und Beschäftigung in ausländische Tochterfirmen verlagert. Der Autor legt zudem dar, welche strategischen Optionen in Verbindung mit Globalisierungsprozessen wahrgenommen und gewählt werden. Er kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass die Akteure, da sie das globale Feld als zunehmend transnationalisiert empfinden, ihre eigenen Strategien verstärkt transnational ausrichten. Dadurch werden wiederum die transnationalen Strukturen vertieft.
