Journal on Policy and Complex Systems: Volume 5, Number 1, Spring 2019 - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Included papers range from environmental policy to tax distributions. Asim Zia tackles the issue of environmental policy design through the question of conservation versus development valuation conflicts in Tanzanian, Vietnamese, and Peruvian ecological systems. Hector Hugo Caicedo offers a systems thinking approach for targeted population health management in the United States, with specific recommendations for caregivers, biotechnologists, and policymakers. Pete Barbrook-Johnson, Corey Schimpf, and Brian Castellani reflect on the use of complexity-appropriate computational modeling for public policy evaluation in the UK. Dante Suarez models evolving agency in a social context. Bernardo Alves Furtado models tax distribution in metropolitan regions. Finally, R. N. Knowles investigates the dynamical organizations theory in relation to openness, synthesis, and change.While the papers themselves are very diverse in the topics they discuss, they all contribute to the main focus of the Journal of Policy and Complex Systems to use some aspect of computational or mathematical models to develop, implement, or evaluate polices aimed at addressing one or more phenomena in complex social systems. This field is in the development stage, and we are grateful that every day, new researchers are entering this exciting field. We hope that this trend will continue and that we will all consider contributing to the future issues of the Journal.
