Edited by Antonio Maturo, Sarka Hoskova-Mayerova, Daniela-Tatiana Soitu, Janusz Kacprzyk

Part of the Studies in Systems, Decision and Control series

Hardback

Description

The papers collected in this volume focus on new perspectives on individuals, society, and science, specifically in the field of socio-economic systems.

The book is the result of a scientific collaboration among experts from “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iasi (Romania), “G. d’Annunzio” University of Chieti-Pescara (Italy), "University of Defence" of Brno (Czech Republic), and "Pablo de Olavide" University of Sevilla (Spain).

The heterogeneity of the contributions presented in this volume reflects the variety and complexity of social phenomena. The book is divided in four Sections as follows. The first Section deals with recent trends in social decisions.

Specifically, it aims to understand which are the driving forces of social decisions.

The second Section focuses on the social and public sphere.

Indeed, it is oriented on recent developments in social systems and control.

Trends in quantitative theories and models are described in Section 3, where many new formal, mathematical-statistical tools for modelling complex social phenomena are presented.

Finally, Section 4 shows integrative theories and models; particularly, it deals with the ethical, cultural and political approaches to social science, the pedagogical methods, and the relationship between literature, politics, religion and society. The book is addressed to sociologists, philosophers, mathematicians, statisticians, people interested in ethics, and specialists in the fields of communication, social, and political sciences.
