Such claims are central to UK\u2010 and US\u2010centric attempts to reform capitalism in the face of multiple global crises. This article uses Foucault's writing on (neo)liberal governmentality to analyze a particular manifestation of the logic of \u201cdoing good and doing well\u201d: the attempt to build a market for social investment in the UK between 2010 and 2016, a project closely related to the development of the broader impact investment movement. Building on a close reading of Foucault's writing on the role of self\u2010interest, it is argued that two incompatible versions of social investment are present within the development of the market: one (the \u201cinnovative version\u201d) that assumes purpose and profit are fully compatible, and one (the \u201cprincipled version\u201d) that assumes it is important to maintain a boundary between them. The relevance of these findings and the approach used is discussed in relation to the social studies of market, and ongoing efforts to develop a critique of \u201cdoing good and doing well\u201d.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/1468-4446.12936","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,25]],"date-time":"2022-03-25T07:49:51Z","timestamp":1648194591000},"page":"623-642","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Dissecting the \u201cdo good and do well\u201d phenomenon: The case of the <scp>UK<\/scp>'s market for social investment"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"73","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1200-6998","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jess","family":"Daggers","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Politics Birkbeck College, University of London  London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","volume-title":"Allocating for impact: Subject paper of the asset allocation working group","author":"Asset Allocation Working Group","year":"2014"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-4446.2012.01417.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3384\/VS.2001-5592.15319"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","first-page":"31","article-title":"Many a slip: The challenge of impact as boundary object in social finance","volume":"45","author":"Barman E.","year":"2020","journal-title":"Historical Social Research"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","volume-title":"Foucault and political reason: Liberalism, neo\u2010liberalism, and rationalities of government","author":"Barry A.","year":"1996"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","article-title":"Marginalised returns","author":"Bolis M.","year":"2017","journal-title":"Stanford Social Innovation Review"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7208\/chicago\/9780226028811.001.0001"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","volume-title":"The impact investor's handbook: Lessons from the world of microfinance","author":"CAF Venturesome","year":"2011"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/03085140903020580"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/03085140903424519"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","first-page":"152","article-title":"The dual function of judgment devices.
