Within this series of four recordings, we hear Yuval responding to four fundamental questions frequently asked about the field his name has become inseparable from.<\/em><\/p>\n

——–<\/p>\n

Q1: What does SSF say about financial risk? How can it add to our understanding of such risks academically and\/or to financial risk management?<\/p>\n

Yuval’s Response<\/a><\/p>\n

Q2:\u00a0The concepts of performativity and markets devices are among the cornerstones of SSF. Can you explain a little bit about them and how they are related to one another? Relatedly, can SSF offer insights about understanding the current financial and economic crisis?<\/p>\n

Yuval’s Response<\/a><\/p>\n

Q3:\u00a0SSF scholars have been using both elements from Actor-Network Theory and from social network analysis. What are the relations between the two approaches and why are they useful for the study of financial markets?<\/p>\n

Yuval’s Response<\/a><\/p>\n

Q4.\u00a0A group of SSF scholars has worked, as part of the Working Group on Responsible Innovation in <\/i>Finance, <\/i>on ideas about innovation in finance. What lessons can this work provide to students of finance and to practitioners in the area?<\/p>\n
