摘要：The role of the social sciences in the current financial crisis
is no doubt very far from the minds of regulators, politi-
cians and policy makers as they grapple with each daily
twist and turn of events. And yet it ought to be apparent
that, even allowing for bad behaviour, this crisis raises
questions about the forms of knowledge which inform
management, especially risk management, and regulation.
Academics have been very quick into print on the causes
and consequences of the crisis, but slower to reflect on the
role of the social sciences themselves. Fortunately, the
emerging exchanges and alliances between economic
sociology, social studies of science and accounting in its
broadest sense, provide the best possible platform for
exploring this issue.
