Value, Historicity, and Economic Epistemology
This book aims to study, from an approach linked to epistemology and the history of ideas, the evolution of economic science and its differing seminal systems. Today mainstream economics solves certain problems chosen within the scope of “normal science,” without questioning the epistemological foundations that support the paradigm within which they were conceived. Contrary to a Neoclassical interpretation, the historicist interpretation shows that, from the incommensurability of the different paradigms, it is impossible to conceive of a progress of economic science, in a long-term perspective. This book ultimately reveals, from the different economic schools of thought analyzed, that there is no pure form of episteme, or system of understanding. Each concrete episteme in the history of economic thought is by nature hybrid in the sense that it contains components from preceding systems of knowledge.
Essays on the Historicity of Capital
The methodological and epistemological problem this book studies is related to the heterogeneity of capital. Capitals are heterogeneous through time and space; at the same time, various heterogeneous capitals must be aggregated, as shown by Ricardo and Keynes. On the other hand, the value of some quantity of aggregate capital changes over time, as demonstrated by Ricardo, Keynes and Stiglitz. For this purpose, this book considers Ricardo, Keynes and Stiglitz. For each author, capital is heterogeneous: Ricardo, from his labor theory; Keynes from the change in expectations, in regard to the return of such capital; and Stiglitz from the divergences between the different groups’ expectations. ...
Information, Power, and Politics
With the spread of information and communication technologies (ICTs) comes the potential both for new social and economic equalities and new forms of inequalities. Information, Power, and Politics: Technological and Institutional Mediations demonstrates that ICTs can act as an impetus for democratizing information and knowledge, while at the same time new institutional frameworks can limit one's use of and access to strategic information and knowledge. The volume's contributors address ways to strengthen and affirm the socially marginalized as well as suggest how best to incorporate (semi)peripheral countries and regions into the international system. Information, Power, and Politics offers a refreshing and timely perspective on the ever-evolving relationship between information, knowledge, and communication.

L'industria culturale. Le industrie culturali. Brani Scelti
L'antologia propone alcuni dei "punti di vista" che costituiscono l'oggetto industria culturale, suggerisce l'opportunità di una rilettura di pagine già molto frequentate e propone brani - più o meno "classici" in tradizioni diverse dalla nostra - di autori scarsamente noti nel nostro Paese. Il volume intende proporre un filo conduttore fra approcci epistemologici e ipotesi teoriche differenti, in una prospettiva essenzialmente operativa.
Les Producteurs de télévision
« S'interroger sur la manière dont s'élabore l'offre de télévision, c'est partir à la recherche de personnages faussement familiers dans les représentations sociales : les producteurs de télévision. Aller au cœur des concepts qui organisent leur métier, détailler comment se définit pour chacun d'entre eux le champ des possibles et sur quels principes explicites ou implicites ils conduisent leur activité dans le cadre de cette économie originale qu'est la production de programmes, à la frontière de la culture et du marché, c'est se donner une chance de saisir sociologiquement et économiquement un fait social dans sa pleine maturité qu'est la télévision. » Nicolas Brigaud-Robert
