Jacob Habinek

Associate Professor, Docent

I am an economic sociologist with interests in the sociology of markets, science, and culture.

Short presentation

My research at the IAS uses the tools of computational text analysis and social network analysis to study how individuals and organizations sustain a sense of shared order in uncertain, highly competitive environments.

Since completing my PhD in sociology in 2016 at the University of California, Berkeley, I have held positions at the IAS, the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies, and the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science. My two ongoing projects examine the dynamics of competition among scientific disciplines and in asset-backed securities markets, respectively. I have also just begun work on a multi-year study funded by the Riksbankens Jubileumsfond on the cultural and social dynamics of the awarding of the Nobel Prize.
