Richard Freeman is Professor of Social Science and Public Policy at the University of Edinburgh. He teaches knowledge and practice on undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in policy and politics, as well as theory and method in the Graduate School of Social and Political Science. He is a former Fulbright Scholar and Jean Monnet Fellow, and has held visiting positions at the Hanse-Wissenschaftskolleg, Bremen, the Institut d’Études Politiques (‘Sciences Po’), Paris, the Institut für höhere Studien, Vienna, the University of Vienna and Yale University, New Haven. His research is concerned with knowing and doing in politics, that is with what policy makers, practitioners and others know and do when they go to work. It draws on public policy as well as social theory, the sociology of knowledge and science and technology studies in exploring public action. He is the author, most recently, of doing politics (2021), free to access at https://doingpolitics.space.
