> Sage will be publishing a four volume set on Computational Social
> Science in Spring 2010. This four volume set will reprint the key
> articles in the emerging field of computational social science. It
> will include:
>
> * the hard-to-find classic papers that first signalled the potential
> of the computational approach;
> * a selection of influential examples of computational social
> science from a wide range of social science disciplines, including
> economics, sociology, geography, political science, social
> psychology, anthropology and archaeology, and business and
> management; and
> * contributions on the methodology of computational social science,
> including comparisons with other approaches.
>
> Computational social science is here defined as the use of
> computational models (so including all forms of simulation, but not,
> for example, equation-based models).
>
> The set will include approximately 80 articles. The great majority
> will be either articles originally published in academic journals,
> or as chapters from edited collections derived from conferences.
> They will be divided into sections, each with a brief introduction.
>
> You can help with selecting the 80 articles (no complete books or
> lengthy reports). The articles proposed so far can be found in a
> CiteULike group at:

> You can add your suggestions, and comment on the items already
> proposed. Everyone who contributes or comments has a chance of

> publication from those who have participated.
