Abstract

Throughout Chapter 6, I connect my empirical findings to my theoretical framework. In doing so, I analyze the processes that gradually led up to the ERC’s construction as a status intermediary within the field of European science. On the one hand, the ERC devoted extensive efforts to framing its StG evaluations as exact, expert-driven, and highly exclusive procedures that accurately detected the most meritorious and promising early-career scientists in Europe. On the other hand, different actors across the European science field repeatedly validated the ERC’s framing by adopting, amplifying, and internalizing the results of StG evaluations. Taken together, my analyses allow me to emphasize the importance of framing and validating as interactional parts of mutually reinforcing processes that successively constructed the ERC into an authoritative status intermediary.
