Leaned explores the adoption and implementation of novel budget models in US public higher education institutions over the past two decades. Combining quantitative and qualitative analyses, our group is exploring the ways budget models facilitated state divestments in public education, generated and shaped emerging pressures for institutional income, and transformed the relations between academics, managers, and students across distinctly racialized and gendered lines.
Ivermexico is a short book that explores the role of science and public intellectuals in moments of political flux. Although centered on the case of Mexico, it offers critical insights for thinking about the role of scientific expertise in periods of political and societal reconfiguration, from times of transitions between parties in power to more general moments of regime change and political uncertainty.
Combining ethnographic and interview data, we are exploring the way data science teams navigate the ‘knowability’ of claims derived from machine learning models. By studying how data scientists frame, interpret, pack, and disseminate claims about the world resulting from their models, we hope to develop. a practical toolkit for communicating uncertainties in public debates.
