Do Economists Make Markets?: On the Performativity of Economics

Excellent copy, as described

Not only is this collection of economic insights at the cutting edge of the field of applied economics, it is remarkably pertinent to developmental studies in psychology and sociology. Do 'soft' science theorists actually influence the real world, beyond even their immediate focuses of examination? How exactly does that happen? Explanations offered are lucid and essential.Michel Callon, Professor of Sociology at the Ecole des Mines de Paris, sums up the books arguments regarding performation in an impressive, no-nonsense manner. Highly recommended.
