Making Good Economies with Bad Economic Instruments
This article examines how notions of the good are entangled with instruments of valuation in the case of wind power in Denmark. Analytically, we develop what we tentatively call a comparative actantial approach to the study of policy instruments. Empirically, we inspect three support schemes introduced between 1979 and 1999 by the Danish state to foster the development of wind power. The comparative inspection shows wind power's notable shifts in…
The new new economic sociology - the market intervention test
This paper explores what happens when the ‘new new economic sociology’ – the figure created with Callon’s importation of ANT to the study of markets – intervenes in market interventions. Empirically, the paper examines a situation in which a researcher moves out of her habitual position of studying economists and engineers doing markets, to instead take part in an effort of engineering a market. The paper has two contributions. One is analytical.…
Market Studies
Market studies is a newly emerging field dedicated to understanding the origins, core concepts, theories and methods currently being used and developed to examine markets in the making. Providing a unique overview that introduces, positions and develops this highly fertile area of research, Market Studies is the first book to consolidate its themes, tools and methods in a single, comprehensive volume. Topics covered include: market organization a…

Interventions and dissonance in industrial research
This article describes the efforts of an ethnographically trained architect, employed as an industrial researcher in an architectural firm, as she tests ways of being relevant to both scholarly and business audiences. Drawing on the STS-inspired concept sorting attachments, the study illustrates how the industrial researcher aims to handle implicit friction inherent in the industrial research framework, while at the same time introducing friction…
Model of Human Fallibility
Over the past decades, insights from behavioral sciences have gained traction as sources for designing public policy and for governing areas of collective concerns. It has become increasingly common to ascribe ‘flawed’ decision-making to systematic heuristics and cognitive biases of citizens and experts. This popular behavioral approach to public organizing is anchored in a very particular model of human behavior, namely what we label homo fallib…
Demonstrating a Flexible Electricity Consumer
Real-world experiments have become a common method for testing and developing new technologies to decarbonize the energy system. The significance of the site of such experiments is evident yet elusive. A case in point is the Danish island Bornholm, test site for a smart grid experiment involving more than 800 private households. The object of intervention of this experiment is the so-called flexible electricity consumer; a means for countering ra…

The organization of markets for collective concerns and their failures
This special issue introduces a new object of analysis: the organization of markets for collective concerns and their failures. This paper discusses how the study of this new object challenges key assumptions in recent social studies of markets. We focus on three issues, each related to the keywords of the title: organization, market, and concern. The first problem is the fluctuating conceptual value of the market-organization pair in the forms o…
Solving infrastructural concerns through a market reorganization
Following the rapid growth of wind power in Denmark in the past 20 years, energy infrastructure has become increasingly politicized. Fluctuating renewables not only contest the dominant ‘logic’ of operating the system, namely ‘supply-follows-demand’, but it also introduces new actors like aggregators and reconfigures existing market actors. In this paper, we study a case, EcoGrid 2.0 on the Danish island Bornholm, as a case of a ‘marketized’ solu…
Organizing consumers for a decarbonized electricity system
Articulation work from the middle—a study of how technicians mediate users and technology
This article studies the work performed by technicians in a large demonstration project, EcoGrid 2.0, in the Danish island Bornholm. Based on observations of household visits conducted by technicians, we demonstrate how these act as ‘middlemen’, mediating and linking together the smart technology of the demonstration and the involved users. Formally, technicians’ work is to keep users online; however, they also perform a number of invisible tasks…
How Engineers Make Markets Organizing Electricity System Decarbonization
Energy system decarbonization by means of wind power integration has recently been pursued through the introduction of a novel retail electricity market. The market, named EcoGrid, has been designed to facilitate short-term price-responsive electricity consumption. By following the market construction process undertaken by scientists at the Technical University of Denmark, this article shows how engineers have approached the task by designing mar…
Valuation struggles over pricing - determining the worth of wind power
Public policies such as feed-in tariffs have been widely introduced to stimulate the development of renewable energies, and sustain a decarbonisation of the electricity sector. Proponents argue that these governance instruments safeguard public goods such as the climate – yet they are accused of creating political markets, and political prices, here understood as market distortion. This paper studies the ‘politics’ of pricing by following the ado…
