Mathematical models in the social sciences have become increasingly
sophisticated and widespread in the last decade. This period has
also seen many critiques, most lamenting the sacrifices incurred in
pursuit of mathematical rigor. If, as critics argue, our ability to
understand the world has not improved during the mathematization of
the social sciences, we might want to adopt a different paradigm.
This book examines the three main fields of mathematical modeling -
game theory, statistics, and computational methods - and proposes a
new framework for modeling. Unlike previous treatments which view
each field separately, the treatment provides a framework that
spans and incorporates the different methodological approaches. The
goal is to arrive at a new vision of modeling that allows
researchers to solve more complex problems in the social sciences.
Additionally, a special emphasis is placed upon the role of
computational modeling in the social sciences.
