Market FuturesFuture Markets
Joint conference of the Interdisciplinary Market Studies Workshop (IMSW) and
the Journal of Cultural Economy
Edinburgh, 31 May to 2 June 2023
Welcome! It is our great pleasure to invite you to the 7th Interdisciplinary
Market Studies Workshop (#IMSW2023). In 2023, IMSW comes to the University of
Edinburgh and will be hosted for the first time in collaboration with the
Journal of Cultural Economy.
IMSW was founded in 2010 and is now the primary gathering place for academics
interested in the social studies of markets from fields as diverse as science
and technology studies, sociology, organisation studies, marketing,
information systems, political science, history, anthropology, and geography.
Previous events have been hosted in Sweden, Dublin, Ireland, France, Scotland,
and Denmark.
The Journal of Cultural Economy
(JCE) was established in 2008 as an outlet for research exploring the role
material cultural practices play in organising economies, markets, and
societies, and is now an essential platform for inter, cross, and
transdisciplinary studies of all things economic. The constituencies of IMSW
and the JCE have always naturally overlapped, and we are delighted to join
forces in Edinburgh in 2023.
Our theme this time is Future MarketsMarket Futures. The concept of 'futures'
is often mobilised in response to the twenty-first century's urgent, stubborn,
or 'wicked' problems: global public health, climate emergency, geopolitical
instability, rising wealth inequalities, technopopulism among many. In the
academy 'futures' indexes a range of critical, empirical, methodological, and
institutional responses to these problems. We draw on this architecture of
futures thinking to invite reflections on the role the future plays in
planning. projecting, modelling, imagining, designing, making, maintaining,
promising, casting, and forecasting markets.
We are delighted to have confirmed our keynote speakers: Professor Sharon
Zukin, Dr Lana Swartz, Professor Michel Callon (in a pre-recorded conversation
with Koray Caliskan), and Professor Pierre-Benot Joly
