Alan Kirman* and Jean-Benoit Zimmermann** *GREQAM -Universite
d'Aix-Marseille, Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales,
Marseille **CNRS -GREQAM, Marseille This book continues in a
tradition which has developed in the annual Workshops on Economics
with Heterogeneous Interacting Agents, (WEHIA). The purpose of that
workshop was to analyse situations in which individual agents, who
might be different from each other, interact and produce behaviour
on the aggregate level which does not correspond to that of the
average actor. This rupture with the well established tradition of
the "representative individual" is far from having established a
central position in economics. That the relaxation of that
assumption and the introduction of heterogeneous individuals might
change the relationship between micro behaviour and macro phenomena
is clearly spelled out by Forni and Lippi (1997). The modelling of
the actual interaction between these individuals has been and
remains a challenge. Early analytical attempts to introduce direct
and local interaction between agents such as in the pioneering work
of Follmer (1974) met with little response and the recent wave of
interest associated with the names of Aoki (1996), Durlauf (1997)
and Blume (1993) amongst others was twenty years in the making.
Yet, the influence of other disciplines such as physics and biology
in which complex interactive systems and their analysis play a
central role is now making itself felt in economics and the papers
in this volume reflect that fact."
