Abstract

The discussion of markets from a dynamic centered on sociological bias has been encouraged in recent years, especially since the 1970s to 1980s. Considering the relevance of studies discussing markets in the perspective of economic sociology in the agri-food sector, this article mapped the current literature on the social construction of markets and quality, through the methodological procedure of bibliometric review. We found that the United States, France and Brazil have considerable influence in relation to studies on the social construction of markets. Brazilian researchers are pioneers in studies related to the social construction of quality in food markets. It is concluded that, in socially constructed markets, the analysis focuses on objects of exchange influenced by social relations, where quality is one of the forms of coordination of socially determined processes.
