Sociological Approaches to the Study of Quantification","Calculation and quantification are central to modern societies, linking closely with science, markets, and administration. Over the last thirty years, quantification’s pace, purpose, and scope have expanded, alongside a growing scholarly literature. The article surveys quantification across four flourishing domains: administration, democratic rule, economics, and personal life. It aims to spur cross-disciplinary debate, while warning against unifying accounts and emphasizing systematic tracking of quantification’s ambiguity across sites.","cbCaik3XnXCTpVx0","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaik3XnXCTpVx0","pdf",421934,1,23,"English","en","# Introduction\n## Quantification in modern societies\n## Growth of scholarship and related debates\n# Assessment across domains\n## Administration, democratic rule, economics, and personal life\n## Implications for sociology","[{\"question\":\"What does the article focus on regarding quantification scholarship?\",\"answer\":\"It evaluates widely dispersed literature on quantification across administration, democratic rule, economics, and personal life, aiming to encourage cross-disciplinary debate.\"},{\"question\":\"How has quantification changed over the past decades, according to the text?\",\"answer\":\"Its pace, purpose, and scope expanded significantly over the past thirty years, accompanied by increasing use of performance measures, risk calculations, ratings, and rankings in both institutions and daily life.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the article caution readers about unifying accounts of quantification?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes tracking quantification across different sites to recognize quantification’s essential ambiguity and to investigate interactions between distinct quantification regimes.\"}]",1779742853,58,{"code":4,"msg":28,"data":29},"ok",{"site_id":30,"language":22,"slug":31,"title":13,"keywords":32,"description":14,"schema_data":33,"social_meta":84,"head_meta":86,"extra_data":88,"updated_unix":25},105,"whats-new-with-numbers-sociological-approaches-to-the-study-of-quantification","",{"@graph":34,"@context":83},[35,52,66],{"@type":36,"itemListElement":37},"BreadcrumbList",[38,42,46,49],{"item":39,"name":40,"@type":41,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":43,"name":44,"@type":41,"position":45},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":47,"name":12,"@type":41,"position":48},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":50,"name":13,"@type":41,"position":51},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/whats-new-with-numbers-sociological-approaches-to-the-study-of-quantification/31561/",4,{"url":50,"name":13,"@type":53,"author":54,"headline":13,"publisher":56,"fileFormat":59,"description":14,"dateModified":60,"datePublished":60,"encodingFormat":59,"isAccessibleForFree":61,"interactionStatistic":62},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":55},"Person",{"url":39,"name":57,"@type":58},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-05-25",true,{"@type":63,"interactionType":64,"userInteractionCount":4},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":65},"ViewAction",{"@type":67,"mainEntity":68},"FAQPage",[69,75,79],{"name":70,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":72},"What does the article focus on regarding quantification scholarship?","Question",{"text":73,"@type":74},"It evaluates widely dispersed literature on quantification across administration, democratic rule, economics, and personal life, aiming to encourage cross-disciplinary debate.","Answer",{"name":76,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":77},"How has quantification changed over the past decades, according to the text?",{"text":78,"@type":74},"Its pace, purpose, and scope expanded significantly over the past thirty years, accompanied by increasing use of performance measures, risk calculations, ratings, and rankings in both institutions and daily life.",{"name":80,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":81},"Why does the article caution readers about unifying accounts of quantification?",{"text":82,"@type":74},"It emphasizes tracking quantification across different sites to recognize quantification’s essential ambiguity and to investigate interactions between distinct quantification regimes.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":50,"og:type":85,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":57,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":87,"canonical":50},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":30}]
