"In diesem Beitrag wird ein sozialpsychologischer Ansatz zur empirischen Erforschung zivilgesellschaftlicher Kontexte und deren Einfluss auf das Handeln wirtschaftlicher Akteure vorgestellt. Die methodische Herangehensweise beruht dabei auf Sozialtheorien, die explizit die Beziehung zwischen gesellschaftlichen Strukturen und individuellem Handeln berücksichtigen. Es wird die sinnvolle Nutzung eines solchen Ansatzes insbesondere für qualitative Interviewstudien aufgezeigt und anhand eines konkreten Fallbeispiels illustriert: dem Einfluss der christlichen Religion auf die Handlungsentwürfe klein- und mittelständischer Unternehmer."

"This paper proposes a socio-psychological approach for empirical research into the influence of civil society contexts on the practices of individual economic actors. This methodological approach is based on social theories that explicitly take into account the link between structure and agency, and the paper explains how such framework can be utilised in qualitative interview-based studies. To illustrate the usefulness of such socio-psychological approach, the paper reports on the findings of a research project that used this methodology as it sought to investigate the influence of Christianity on SME owner-managers' conceptualisations of practice."
