Popis:	This blame game study reports on attempts by eight municipalities to recover money in the wake of financial losses resulting from the financial crisis. Actor‐network theory helps unravel which actors were involved in creating the blame game and those who were mobilized to facilitate it, which resulted in judicial losses and substantial advisory service fees. The evidence suggests that punctualization can be costly when dealing with precarious investments and engaging in blame gaming, as simplifications might evoke adverse effects. Contributions relate to group formation and the use of experts in blame gaming and addressing related strategies as heterogeneous network effects.
