It examines those areas of scientific practice where reliance on the subjective judgment of experts and practitioners is the main source of useful knowledge to address, and, possibly, bring solutions to social problems. A common phenomenon in applications of science is that objective evidence does not point to a single answer, or solution, to a problem. Reliance on subjective judgment, then, becomes necessary, despite the known fact that hunches, even those of putative experts, often provide information that is not very accurate, and that experts are prone to fallacies and biases. The book looks at how experts reach consensus in the social sciences, and which experts are relevant to which problems. This book offers the ingredients for building a normative theory of expertise on the basis of the evidence that social scientists and philosophers have uncovered. 410 0$aEthical Economy, Studies in Economic Ethics and Philosophy,$x2211-2707 ;$v50 606 $aPhilosophy and social sciences 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E36000 606 $aHistory of Economic Thought/Methodology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W28000 606 $aMethodology of the Social Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X17000 615 0$aPhilosophy and social sciences. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aSocial sciences. 615 14$aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences. 615 24$aHistory of Economic Thought/Methodology. 615 24$aMethodology of the Social Sciences. 676 $a10 676 $a300.1 676 $a330 702 $aMartini$b Carlo$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBoumans$b Marcel$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484211403321 996 $aExperts and Consensus in Social Science$92848147 997 $aUNINA
