"In this major new collection, leading experts explore multidisciplinary connections between technology and economy, drawing on new convergences between economic sociology and science and technology studies. Through theoretical and empirical studies, the authors investigate economics and economic knowledges as technologies; economics as socio-technical assemblages; the nature of innovation; and the role of technological mediations in representing and performing economies. This book interrogates the evidence for contemporary claims about the emergence of the 'new economy' and 'knowledge-based economy' and sheds new light on the relation between economy and culture."
