This book presents a method for creating a working model of
society, using data systems and simulation techniques, that can be
used for testing propositions of scientific and policy nature. The
model is based on the example of New Zealand, but will be
applicable to other countries. It is expected that collaborators in
other countries can emulate this example with their data systems
for teaching and policy purposes, producing a cross-national
"collaboratory". This enterprise will evolve with, and to a degree
independently of, the book itself, with a supporting website as
well as teaching and scientific initiatives. Readers of this text
will, for the first time, have a simulation-based working model of
society that can be interrogated for policy and substantive
purposes. This book will appeal to researchers and professionals
from various disciplines working within the social sciences,
particularly on matters of demography and public policy.
