[Swarm-Modelling] journal theme issue

[Ivana Cace]

Dear list members,

Last month a special issue of INDECS devoted to modelling related to
human development and poverty, was published online and on paper. All
full text articles are freely available from
http://indecs.znanost.org.
Most of the contributions (see below) use some form of Agent Based
Modeling, and as such I hope they will provide interesting reading for
everyone interested real world applications of ABM.
See list of contributions below:

Complexity meets development - a felicitous encounter on the road of
life; L.L. Smith
Modelling local monetary flows in poor regions: a research setup to
simulate the multiplier effect in local economies; R.C. Hoekstra, H.
van Arkel and B. Leurs
Unravelling the unsustainability spiral in sub-Saharan Africa: an

den Broek and N.B.J. Koning
