Explication and the changing of market participants’ subjectivities in securities market integration

This paper addresses one of the central premises of the concept of market devices, namely, how the subjectivities of economic agents are (re)configured by market devices (Callon et al., 2007). While the market devices research has addressed how markets behave when devices are incorporated into clusters, we shift research attention to the question of how market devices relate to how markets come about. In particular, how technological and human actors interact and shape one another during the processes through which markets are (re)configured.
