Amid rising inequality, scholars have emphasised the importance of further understanding elite legitimation. In this article, we draw attention to the emotional dynamics of elite legitimation, exploring how adolescents from wealthy upper-class families manage feelings of privilege and worth. Based on a one-year ethnography in a Swedish elite high school, we show that an upper-class background was experienced as morally problematic and a threat to…
Between Delivery and Luck: Projectification of Academic Careers and Conflicting Notions of Worth at the Postdoc Level
This paper investigates how early career academics interpret and respond to institutional demands structured by projectification.

Building upon 35 interviews with early career academics in political science and history, this paper explores how junior scholars use appraisal devices to navigate th…
