Limits of Performativity

<p>The economy is commonly described either as the apolitical realm of calculation or as the fully political one of domination. This book scrutinizes the ways in which the economy is performed in order to situate where precisely politics is located with regard to economic matters. Politics the book demonstrates thus appears at the turning point in the place where the efficiency of economics is negotiated and where the need to forward it reshape it and complement it emerges.</p><p>This book was originally published as a special issue of the <i>Journal of Cultural Economy</i>.</p>
