« Le classement de Shanghai mesure mal la qualité de l'enseignement supérieur…  » « Ce n'est pas aux étudiants d'évaluer les enseignants…  », « Les universitaires n'aiment pas qu'on les évalue… », etc. Seraient-ils corporatistes, recroquevillés sur leurs supposés privilèges ? Et pourquoi les dirigeants et les gestionnaires de l'Université tiennent-ils tellement à donner des notes et à classer (les chercheurs, les enseignants, les laboratoires, les universités...) ? Une vielle habitude d'enseignants ? Hugo Harari-Kermadec montre que l'enjeu principal de cette mise en nombre est de préparer la marchandisation de l'Université. Pour produire du Capital humain et s'insérer dans l'économie de la connaissance, l'Université devrait se transformer en profondeur, et le travail des universitaires devrait changer, coûte que coûte, de forme. Si les classements et les autres dispositifs de mise en nombre sont aussi importants, c'est parce qu'ils jouent un rôle essentiel pour faire du service public d'enseignement supérieur un nouveau secteur marchand producteur de valeur économique et de profits. En saisissant un secteur en cours de marchandisation, Hugo Harari-Kermadec révèle un processus qui s'étend bien au-delà de l'Université, de l'hôpital aux tâches domestiques, des compteurs linky aux bigdata. Il donne une nouvelle légitimité aux résistances face à la mise en nombre et invite à retourner l'arme de la quantification comme instrument d'émancipation.

A groundbreaking new historical analysis of how global capitalism and advanced democracies mutually support each otherIt is a widespread view that democracy and the advanced nation-state are in crisis, weakened by globalization and undermined by global capitalism, in turn explaining rising inequality and mounting populism. This book, written by two of the world's leading political economists, argues this view is wrong: advanced democracies are resilient, and their enduring historical relationship with capitalism has been mutually beneficial.For all the chaos and upheaval over the past century-major wars, economic crises, massive social change, and technological revolutions-Torben Iversen and David Soskice show how democratic states continuously reinvent their economies through massive public investment in research and education, by imposing competitive product markets and cooperation in the workplace, and by securing macroeconomic discipline as the preconditions for innovation and the promotion of the advanced sectors of the economy. Critically, this investment has generated vast numbers of well-paying jobs for the middle classes and their children, focusing the aims of aspirational families, and in turn providing electoral support for parties. Gains at the top have also been shared with the middle (though not the bottom) through a large welfare state.Contrary to the prevailing wisdom on globalization, advanced capitalism is neither footloose nor unconstrained: it thrives under democracy precisely because it cannot subvert it. Populism, inequality, and poverty are indeed great scourges of our time, but these are failures of democracy and must be solved by democracy.

Over the past ten years, industries such as music, retail, journalism, advertising, and health information have experienced massive and wrenching disruption. Dominant players have been displaced and often marginalized by innovative, entrepreneurial competitors. The same digital transformation has now migrated to more traditional sectors. Just as the Industrial Revolution created distinct winners and losers, so the digital era has led to a climate where individuals, companies, and even entire industries and countries will either thrive or fall hopelessly behind.Gali Einav and a strong group of international contributors offer a guide to this brave new world in a timely collection that combines academic insights and entrepreneurial case studies focused on digital innovation. A first section brings together academic thought-leaders to offer in-depth perspectives on changes in the digital domain, and focusing these insights around real-world examples, a second section showcases insights into four technology startups that have disrupted their industries through digital innovation. By exploring the effect of disruptive technologies within media, health, music, and employment, this book helps readers to take their next steps into the digital future.For its combination of academic rigor and practical, real-world case studies, Digitized is essential reading both for researchers of innovation and entrepreneurship and for innovators and entrepreneurs across industries.

How businesses and other organizations can improve their performance by tapping the power of differences in how people thinkWhat if workforce diversity is more than simply the right thing to do? What if it can also improve the bottom line? It can. The Diversity Bonus shows how and why. Scott Page, a leading thinker, writer, and speaker whose ideas and advice are sought after by corporations, nonprofits, universities, and governments, makes a clear and compelling practical case for diversity and inclusion. He presents overwhelming evidence that teams that include different kinds of thinkers outperform homogenous groups on complex tasks, producing what he calls "diversity bonuses." These bonuses include improved problem solving, increased innovation, and more accurate predictions-all of which lead to better results. Drawing on research in economics, psychology, computer science, and many other fields, The Diversity Bonus also tells the stories of businesses and organizations that have tapped the power of diversity to solve complex problems. The result changes the way we think about diversity at work-and far beyond.
