  • A rational transition: economic experts and the construction of post-communist Slovenia : a thesis submitted in partial fulfillmet of the requirements for the dgree doctor of philosophy : a thesis submitted in partial fulfillmet of the requirements for the dgree doctor of philosophy
    Bajuk Senčar, Tatiana
    Based on research conducted over a twenty-four month period in Ljubljana, Slovenia, this dissertation provides in ethnographic study of the role of economists in charting Slovenija's transtion ... process. The project argues that economics as a science is not homogeneus across cultures but that its history and implementation are contingent upon the psition of its producers. It examines the practices of economists and the roots of their cultural authority which allows them to occupy influential positions beyond the technical confines of a community of specialized knowledge. The chapters trace the relationship between the history of economics as a discipline and the events that led to Slovenian's process of independence. They focus particulary on the emergence of depoliticized economic discourse as a legitimate critical strategy and track the way that this discursive strategy informed Slovenia's broader process of change. Finally, this study siuates the concept of transition within the realm of social explanations in a particular historical and cultural context.
