This volume contains an Open Access chapter. We have witnessed an
avalanche of quantitative public measures over the past decades.
Research in the social sciences has shown that rankings in
particular are now a driving force of social change - both, desired
and undesired - in many areas of modern life. This volume explores
the distinct allure of rankings in diverse empirical settings such
as healthcare, the IT sector, the arts, professional sports,
anti-slavery advocacy, the pharma industry, and educational
governance. Drawing from a rich variety of social theories and
methodologies, the contributions to this volume advance our
understanding of the production, institutionalization, and effects
of rankings significantly, sparking new debates and suggesting
promising pathways forward.
