Abstract

We present the initial results of a series of studies around the concept of computational political philosophy. We show a computational interpretation of three classical models of political philosophy that justify three different forms of government by implementing some experiments in order to provide evidence to answer the question of which political philosophy proposes a more plausible form of government. We focus in the relation commitment vis-à-vis earnings and we observe that although some political philosophies would justify highly united (communal) or highly competitive (liberal) communities, they would not necessarily imply societies with a reasonable level of welfare.
