About
I am working on a research project on the epistemic foundations of economic forecasts and the role the economic future plays in society. Overall, the premise I am starting from is that the production of scientific knowledge is a social and relational activity and not something done by isolated individuals. Rather, scientists -- no matter if they work on natural, economical, or social topics -- are socially and culturally embedded. And the social context they act in shapes the outcomes of scientific processes.
My field of study is the transnational production of economic forecasts by economists in national institutes, in forecasting associations, and in international organization.
