New paper with Thomas Delcey & Alexandre Truc:
“One Sentence at a Time: A Quantitative History of Rationality in Economic Thought”
▶️ https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/38na2_v1

We study how rationality changes in economics between 1900 & 2009 using ~290000 journal articles

Methodologically, we combine:
➡️ LLM sentence embeddings
➡️ bibliometric & network analysis
➡️ clustering techniques
to track semantic shifts (how rationality is discussed) & intellectual structures (how ideas circulate through citations)
