  • Modelling Norms

    by Corinna Elsenbroich, Nigel Gilbert ...
    Series series Social Sciences (R0)
    The book focusses on questions of individual and collective action, the emergence and dynamics of social norms and the feedback between individual behaviour and social phenomena. It discusses traditional modelling approaches to social norms and shows the usefulness of agent-based modelling for the study of these micro-macro interactions. Existing agent-based models of social norms are discussed ... Read more
