Economic Knowledge as Public Knowledge
Although economic knowledge constitutes a central element of political governing, people have divergent opinions about its nature and whether it can or should be accessible to everyone. This paper examines the contested role of economic knowledge in Sweden during the Enlightenment, focusing on the philosophical and political contributions of Anders Chydenius (1729–1803). Chydenius published several works and pamphlets on economic matters in the 1…
What types of problems are grand challenges
The notion of grand challenges has featured in research policy for over two decades, specifically in the design of funding for societally significant research topics. This paper analyses the historical background behind this phenomenon, showing how the United States and the European Union have approached it from dissimilar perspectives. Even though many challenge-focused funding programmes emphasise the social benefits of research, they represent…
The Limited Role of Social Sciences and Humanities in Interdisciplinary Funding
There is wide agreement among scholars in research policy that the position of the social sciences and humanities (SSH) in interdisciplinary research is not as good as it should be. Academics give many reasons why SSH fields should become more active collaborators in interdisciplinarity, including the capacity within these disciplines to introduce new research questions and to make interdisciplinary research more ethically and societally grounded…
The uses of grand challenges in research policy and university management
The notion of grand challenges has become popular in research governance to support the allocation of research funding to societally beneficial topics. This article illustrates the flexibility and usefulness of grand challenges for university rectorates and project leaders when communicating with policy makers, research funders, and local industries and companies. The flexibility is beneficial to researchers and rectorate during the design stage …
Exploring the Foucauldian interpretation of power and subject in organizations
This paper assesses the recent contribution of Michel Foucault to the study of power and subject in organizations. First, we theoretically examine Foucault's thinking by dividing his works into archaeological, genealogical and aesthetic/ethical phases. We then conduct a review of 113 international journal articles from between the years 2000 and 2009. We do this in order to obtain an overview of the phases of Foucault's thinking that are prevalen…
