Abstract

This thesis proposal aims to provide a new approach to the study of complex adaptive systems in social sciences through a methodological framework for modeling and simulating these systems like artificial societies. Agent based modeling (ABM) is well fitted for the study of social systems as it focuses on how local interactions among agents generate emergent larger and global social structures and patterns of behavior. The issues addressed by our framework are presented as well as its most important components.
