The social sciences and humanities have dedicated their attention to the investigation of economic, and in particular monetary, forms of knowledge, arguing that these knowledges become constituted and stabilized through cultural devices, like narratives, genre conventions, strategies of persuasion and discursive inclusions and exclusions. In contradistinction to this, the proposed project investigates into discourses that question forms of monetary knowledge, and more generally the very possibility and significance of knowing the economic and the monetary. This ‘economic agnosticism’ will be traced in France of the ‘long’ 19th century with a view to literary and sociological discourses. At stake is an interpretive reconstruction of forms and formats of questioning and denying economic, in particular monetary, knowledge in sociology and literature, distinguishing both of these discourses from political economy and the emerging neoclassical economics which take a knowledge of the economic for granted. The project focuses on France of the long 19th century, as it was here that interdependencies between literary and sociological representations of societal problematics were most intensive. Thus, the project will contribute a genealogy of doubting monetary knowledge to the already existing and much-discussed genealogy of the epistemic formation and aesthetic imagination of the monetary.

社会科学和人文科学将注意力集中在对经济形式的知识，特别是货币形式的知识的调查上，认为这些知识是通过文化手段构成和稳定的，如叙事、流派惯例、说服策略和话语的包容和排除。与此形成鲜明对比的是，拟议的项目调查了质疑货币知识形式的论述，以及更广泛地说，了解经济和货币知识的可能性和意义。这种“经济不可知论”将追溯到“漫长的”19世纪的法国，以期形成文学和社会学的论述。危急关头是对质疑和否认经济学，特别是货币、社会学和文学知识的形式和形式的解释性重建，将这两种话语与政治经济学和新兴的新古典经济学区分开来，后者认为经济学知识是理所当然的。该项目聚焦于漫长的19世纪的法国，因为正是在这里，社会问题学的文学和社会学表现之间的相互依存关系最为强烈。因此，该项目将为已经存在的关于货币的认知形成和审美想象力的谱系做出贡献，为怀疑货币知识的谱系做出贡献。
