Bad Arguments in the Comparison of Game Theory and Simulation in Social Studies

Balzer, Wolfgang; Brendel, Karl R.; Hofmann, Solveig - In: Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation 4 (2001) 2, pp. 1-1

The aim of this note is to clarify and to correct some arguments which are used in the debate about the comparison of discrete social simulation with other methodologies used in the study of social phenomena, notably those of game theory. Though part of what will be said also applies to...
