Social Emergence: Societies As Complex Systems
Sawyer, R. Keith (Washington University, St Louis)
Sawyer addresses a key issue in sociology, the relation between the individual and the group. He argues that societies are complex dynamical systems, and that the best way to resolve the debates between sociologists, psychologists and economists is by developing the concept of emergence focusing on multiple levels of analysis.
