Kraemer, Klaus (2010): Propheten der Finanzmärkte. In: Berliner Journal für Soziologie 20 (2), S. 179-201. DOI: 10.1007/s11609-010-0125-9

Abstract: Financial markets are marked by considerable uncertainty. Actors in financial markets are nevertheless constantly forced to make decisions. This article pursues the question of how they cope with this problem of decision-making. Based on a critical discussion of the concept of "expectations of expectations", Max Weber's concept of charisma is introduced to gain a better understanding of the influence of "stock market prophets" on investment decisions and to explain such influence as a social process.

Keywords: Concept of charisma (Max Weber), decision-making, economics, entscheiden, entscheiden,, Entscheidungsforschung, Erwartungserwartung, expectations of expectations, Finanzmarkt, Rolle (Beruf), Unsicherheit, Weber
