Conference Details : Drawing on the theoretical kaleidoscope method, this article aims to develop a pluralistic understanding of global inequality in knowledge production by integrating diverse theoretical frameworks and analysing empirical evidence on inequality in research outcomes and its underlying causes. Economic theory points to the importance of market failures in knowledge production, the key role of public and philanthropic funding of research, and how uncertainty skews investments toward low-risk activities.
