The different schools of economics are linked to sociology in several ways. Most of the schools of economics are based on the idea that individuals make choices based on self-interest, and that social forces shape these decisions. The neoclassical school of economics, for instance, relies heavily on the theory of rational choice and game theory, both of which are used in sociology to analyze and explain social behavior. Additionally, economics has a direct effect on society and its institutions, which are studied in sociology. Finally, sociology looks at how certain economic ideologies, such as free-market capitalism and laissez-faire economics, affect different social groups differently.
