Resumo: Economists justify the internationalization of economic science using meta-language in such a way that competition is presented as an “exemplary” mechanism which increases the quality (epistemic credibility) and productivity (the absorption of new knowledge) of science. However, competition from the perfect markets of economic theory is rarely found in the real world, much less in science, where a combination of material and symbolic factors reinforces the uneven and hierarchical character of scientific production. Based on this understanding, the present work uses the concept of the ‘Irrelevance Administration Regime’ to understand the inducing structure of scientific processes in which the knowledge produced is considered to be inferior. More specifically, the objective of this paper is to clarify elements that contribute to the existence of a self-deprecated attentional dynamic, focusing on economists’ conscious or unconscious daily scientific practices.

Entretanto, a competição dos mercados perfeitos da teoria econômica raramente é encontrada no mundo real, muito menos na ciência, onde uma combinação de fatores materiais e simbólicos reforça o caráter desigual e hierárquico da produção científica. Partindo desse entendimento, o presente trabalho lança mão do conceito de “regime de administração da irrelevância” para compreender a ordem indutora de processos científicos nos quais o conhecimento produzido é diminuído a uma condição de inferioridade ante outros contextos. Mais especificamente, o objetivo será evidenciar, a partir de procedimentos conscientes ou não, a prática científica cotidiana dos economistas, elementos que contribuem para a existência de uma dinâmica atencional autodepreciada.Departamento de Sociologia - UnB/SOL2023-12-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/sociedade/article/view/4550210.1590/s0102-6992-e45502Sociedade e Estado; Vol. 38 No. 03 (2023); e45502Sociedade e Estado; Vol. 38 Núm. 03 (2023); e45502Sociedade e Estado; v. 38 n. 03 (2023); e455021980-54620102-6992reponame:Sociedade e Estadoinstname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/sociedade/article/view/45502/39324Copyright (c) 2023 Sociedade e Estadohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/deed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNeves, Fabrício MonteiroAguilar-Filho, Hélio2024-02-21T15:33:28Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/45502Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/sociedade/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/sociedade/oaiportaldeperiodicos@bce.unb.br||revistasol@unb.br1980-54620102-6992opendoar:2024-02-21T15:33:28Sociedade e Estado - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
