Four different analytical views on the role of power and economics are taken: first, the role of economic expert discourses as power devices for the formation of influential expertise; second, the logics and modalities of governmentality that produce power\/knowledge apparatuses between science and society; third, economists as involved in networks between academia, politics and the media; and forth, economics considered as a social field, including questions of legitimacy and unequal relations between economists based on the detention of various capitals. The volume includes case studies on a variety of national configurations of economics, such as the US, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Greece, Mexico and Brazil, as well as international spaces and organisations such as the IMF. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book provides innovative research perspectives for students and scholars of heterodox economics, cultural political economy, sociology of professions, network studies, and the social studies of power, discourse and knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The Open Access version of this book, available at https: \/\/www.taylorfrancis.com\/books\/oa-edit\/10.4324\/9780367817084, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJens Maesse\u003c\/strong\u003e is Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Giessen, Germany. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStephan Pühringer is Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Institute for Comprehensive Analysis of the Economy (ICAE) at the University of Linz, Austria, and Research Fellow at the Institute of Economics at the Cusanus University of Bernkastel-Kues, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThierry Rossier is Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Copenhagen Business School, Denmark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePierre Benz is Postdoctoral Researcher in the Faculty of Social Work at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Western Switzerland of Lausanne (HETSL HES-SO), Switzerland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 276\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 09, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42171614429319,"sku":"9780367565954","price":93.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/b4c279add663f00a74640a7ebe0c858d.webp?v=1733357042","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/power-and-influence-of-economists-contributions-to-the-social-studies-of-economics-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
