The vanishing intermediary
This review article reflects on the emerging sociology of financial intermediation, focusing on three contributions: Stories of Capitalism by Stefan Leins, The Everyday Practice of Valuation and Investment by Horacio Ortiz, and Inertia by Yuval Millo, Crawford Spence, and James Valentine. These three studies distance themselves from the performativity literature and approach financial intermediation as a sui generis social phenomenon, offering co…
Uncertainty, (de)valuation, and the limits of legal calculability
Vaccinations are considered one of the most impactful and cost-effective forms of public health interventions but governing them presents distinct challenges. In vaccination campaigns, a balance must be struck between individual freedom and collective safety, and between vaccines’ public health impact and the viability of vaccine manufacturing business. The rare but occasionally severe adverse effects of vaccinations can unsettle this balance. Th…
Charisma without routinization, or how tech entrepreneurs turn into tech oligarchs
The term ‘oligarchy’ typically refers to the political dominance of a wealthy few. Over the past century, scholars and activists have identified successive oligarchic formations, from landowning an...
Making vaccines investable in preclinical vaccine R&D
Recent analyses of vaccine R&D focus on the problem of vaccine access and equity and link them to assetization logics in the pharmaceutical industry. At the same time, empirical analyses of valuation practices in health and biomedicine point to the multiplicity of coexisting valuations. This paper investigates how this multiplicity articulates with the pharmaceutical industry’s imperative to capitalize upon early-stage vaccine research, shaping w…
From jurisdiction to veridiction
Economic valuations play an increasingly important role in contemporary vaccination governance. Focusing on the United States, this paper presents a genealogy of economization in immunization policy. Borrowing from Foucault, it argues that economization occurs in two distinct modalities: juridical and veridical. In the former case, economization serves the purpose of 'doing justice' to an issue or practice. In the latter case, it asks what must b…
Elements of a Pragmatic Theory of Capitalism
This paper offers a review of the recent literature on capitalism in historyand sociology inspired by the Pragmatist perspective. In historical sociology and economic sociology, capitalism has largely been discussed interms of its institutional attributes, e. g. property rights, money, markets,proletarianization of labor, supportive governments, etc. This approachcan tentatively be called “attribute-based.” In contrast to the “attributebased” app…
Towards New Studies of Labor
This introduction looks at the state of the field in the sociology of work and attempts to offer a general summary of the papers presented in this Special Issue. "New Studies of Labor" (NSL) make virtually no use of the theoretical resources of the 20th century's industrial sociology and try to sustain the focus on the labor process and the forms of its organization. They also differ from the contemporary literature on work and occupations which …
The Marxian Materialist Interpretation of History and Comparative Sociology
The paper argues that a materialistic understanding of history as Marx's sociological research program has effectively been implemented in the comparative analysis of bourgeois societies. Both qualitative/case-oriented and quantitative/variable-oriented strategies of comparison were employed by Marx in his scholarship. The authors see the crucial dimension of the classical status of Marx in his engagement with historical comparisons - an analytic…
