The articles collected in this volume have two features in
common: they wantto integrate economics, demography and
geography, and they want to overcome the stationary approach
in modelling in favour of a dynamic one. The book is
subdivided into three parts, where Part I is focussing on
economic evolution, Part II on geographical development and
Part III is related to demographic change. The present
volume aims at providing a new look at this triangle in view
of the classical background of discussions by introducing
new research ideas focussing in nonlinear dynamics and
stochastic modelling. Thus the main purpose of this book is
to make a contribution to the interdisciplinary work needed
to integrate the effortsbetween these three research fields
and to serve as a research source in demonstrating the
current state of art in dynamic modelling.
The book isaddressed to social scientists in general, and
those in particular with a background in economics,
geographics and demographics. It should also be of interest
to mathematicians, physicists, and systems analysts
interested in model building and applications of nonlinear
dynamics.
