Abstract:
Economists receive high social recognition in media, politics and business discourses where they often obtain a status as ‘star economists’ and ‘financial prophets’. This paper investigates the social conditions that make the formation of size in the economic sciences possible. It analyses the institutional constraints, professional networks, forms of academic knowledge and publication strategies of early career economists as part of an academic dispositif.
Keywords:
dispositif analysis; Economic expert discourse; social studies of economics; symbolic visibility in academia
