| Abstract: | The purpose of this paper is to trace the process by which such an improbable research unit, the BETA, has emerged and grown, and to stress the interesting outcomes. The analysis requires understanding of the micro-dynamics of the complex co-evolution between four different elements in the production of research: small epistemic communities as active units of production of specialized knowledge in different domains of economics and management, the lab as a research institution, the university as the locus of collective representation, and key individuals as boundary banners. |
