Luigi Doria - PEL Seminar Series
Calculating the quality of everything
Managing and governing in the age of quality assurance
_______________________________________
Quality is a key word in the lexicon of management and government, yet its meaning remains controversial. Quality is a value-loaded term in managerial and political discourses, but it appears also as the emblem of a disquieting demand for making social reality controllable, accountable and calculable.
Is quality merely an ideological mask for the enduring dominance of quantitative calculation, complicit with the neoliberal commodification and managerialization of social life? Can the "politicization" of quality measurement be an antidote to the hegemony of calculation? By addressing these questions the seminar aims at stimulating the debate on an issue which holds profound theoretical and political implications.
Luigi Doria carries out research activities at Bocconi University Milan and is contract professor at the University of Calabria. He was Fellow at the Nantes Institute for Advanced Studies and did research at the University IUAV of Venice. His recent research interests mainly focus on economic sociology and particularly on the relationship between quality and calculation. He has recently co-edited (with Massimo Amato and Luca Fantacci) the volume Money and Calculation. Economic and Sociological Perspectives, Palgrave Macmillan and Bocconi University Press, 2010.
