In this commentary, I respond to Peck’s (2012) call to position markets as central conceptual, methodological and political research objects within economic geography. In particular, I suggest that cultural economy work on market devices and market actors provides two fruitful ways of advancing such a research agenda. Drawing on work on money and finance, I reflect on both the opportunities and challenges of using this approach to foster interdisciplinary heterodox economics understandings of markets.
