This work aims to foster the interdisciplinary dialogue between
mathematicians and socio-economic scientists. Interaction among
scholars and practitioners traditionally coming from different
research areas is necessary more than ever in order to better
understand many real-world problems we face today. On the one hand,
mathematicians need economists and social scientists to better
address the methodologies they design in a more realistic way; on
the other hand, economists and social scientists need to be aware
of sound mathematical modelling tools in order to understand and,
ultimately, solve the complex problems they encounter in their
research. With this goal in mind, this work is designed to take
into account a multidisciplinary approach that will encourage the
transfer of knowledge, ideas, and methodology from one discipline
to the other. In particular, the work has three main themes:
Demystifying and unravelling complex systems; Introducing models of
individual behaviours in the social and economic sciences;
Modelling socio-economic sciences as complex living systems.
Specific tools examined in the work include a recently developed
modelling approach using stochastic game theory within the
framework of statistical mechanics and progressing up to modeling
Darwinian evolution. Special attention is also devoted to social
network theory as a fundamental instrument for the understanding of
socio-economic systems.
