2.2 Social and economic transformations: simulation and anticipatory models of a CyberSystemic world

   In a context of huge on-going political shifts, digital technologies and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are making social processes more interconnected and interdepended. These latter trends are having an essential effect in business, social and political processes. Economics, science and philosophy are the product of the game of social forces, and now it is all about addressing the role of socio-economic processes and cybernetics in the framework of the 21st century. At a more focused level, inside a paradigm where smart cities and big data are reorganizing our relevant knowledge and common thinking, new logics of value co-creation processes are underpinned by the digital technologies and social disruptions. They are disrupting and upset-ting the “old order”. Under these conditions we invite submissions proposing integrative methods to model, simulate and anticipate social and economic transformations in strongly con-strained societies.
