The contributions to this anthology take debates about the financial crisis, about recent austerity measures or about the Brexit referendum a step further. A common denominator of these dynamics are underlying ideas of »the economy«. Each author identifies a facet of Britain's imagined economies. They connect seemingly separate fields such as finance and fiction in order to better understand current political changes. In addition, the book offers an urgently needed interdisciplinary view on the performative power of economic thought – and in this respect moves far beyond merely British perspectives.Edition Kulturwissenschaft Fischer/Stedman (eds.), Imagined EconomiesNew Perspectives on Economic Thinking in Great BritainEconomyHomo EconomicusReal FictionNeoliberalismGreat BritainRealityEuropeBrexitFinancial CrisisPowerCultureCultural StudiesBritish StudiesCultural TheoryEconomic TheoryEconomyHomo EconomicusReal FictionNeoliberalismGreat BritainRealityEuropeBrexitFinancial CrisisPowerCultureCultural StudiesBritish StudiesCultural TheoryEconomic Theory330.0941HD 402rvkFischer Jessica<p>Jessica Fischer, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Deutschland</p>edtStedman Gesa<p>Gesa Stedman, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Deutschland</p>edtHumboldt-Universität zu Berlinfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910404115703321Imagined Economies - Real Fictions4415602UNINA
