Abstract Building bigger and more elaborate models will neither help us arrive at more realistic descriptions of the world nor help make our predictions more accurate. Mathematical models are just a more accurate way of describing certain complex systems and even though such a model can enhance our understanding of the problem and help ...

Entropy and Economic Modelling
Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1982Entropy-maximizing models have been focused predominantly at the microscopic level of social and economic activities, their use being advocated by urban geographers, mathematicians, and microeconomists. By maintaining a sharp distinction between the behavioural and statistical aspects of entropy, various submodels may be formulated to generate the ...

Modelling Nonlinear Economic Relationships
1993Abstract This volume explains recent theoretical developments in the econometric modelling of relationships between different statistical series. The statistical techniques explored analyse relationships between different variables, over time, such as the relationship between variables in a macroeconomy.

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1954Abstract Three chief subjects are considered. (1) How accurate should data be for economic analysis via economic models, particularly input-output models? Preference is expressed for measurement of additional aspects of economic phenomena rather than broadside improvements in generally sound series.

Economic Barometers and Economic Models
The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1955STATISTICS as a scientific method goes back to the seventeenth century when William Petty and others computed mortality ratios on the basis of church records of births and deaths. This "political arithmetic" as it was then called became a method for discovering statistical regularities in human affairs.

Pierre Bourdieu: Economic models against economism
Theory and Society, 2003The use of economic analogies by Bourdieu has often been the object of much criticism. For some scholars, it reveals an “economistic” vision of the social world too much inspired by neoclassical economics. For others, it is a kind of mechanical metaphor transposed to cultural phenomena in a determinist way, as in the holistic (Marxist) tradition.
