No field has no arguments. Academic research in Entrepreneurship has about 70 years history in USA, but there is still no consensus definition of entrepreneurship and entrepreneur. Marketing has a much long history, but there was no well accepted definition of marketing until AMA gave a definition in 1988. If you know a little about your target field, you must convince adcom that you have strong research potential/ability, for example, you have got a PHD degree, have published some papers, etc. Or you should show adcom that you graduated from top univ in China and have a very strong GPA (Profs. prefer student with high GPA from top univ in China). Otherwise, your chance to get in top 50 is slim even your GMAT is 750+. Stories of many friends in CD and GE(EA) have proved it. Generally, macroeconomics has not much to do with sociology. Maybe some Profs in MIT are focusing on the interdisciplinary field between maro-econ and sociology. All modern macroeconomics explicitly take into account microeconomic foundations when constructing macroeconomic models. Macroeconomics talks much about Neo-Classical Growth Theory, Endogenous Growth Theory, Real Business Cycle Theory, Sunspots and Indeterminacy, International Business Cycles, Optimal Tax Policy, Asset Pricing, and Welfare Cost of Business Cycles.
