Performances of Value

[Ana Gross avisa del siguiente evento]

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to attend a public event David Stark is organising to mark the end of his Performances of Value project on the 4th May in London. This was a project hosted at the Centre for Interdisciplinary Methodologies at Warwick University and funded by the Leverhulme Trust. It was aimed at developing an international network of scholars working in the field of valuation studies, with a strong focus placed on discussing the effects that rankings and ratings have in social life.

Please join us in what will be a very lively and interesting evening with interventions from Will Davies (Goldsmiths); Wendy Espeland (Northwestern); Kristian Kreiner (CBS); and Christine Musselin (Sciences-Po) followed by a drink reception.
