Enforceable social laws

Proceedings of the fourth international joint conference on Autonomous agents and multiagent systems, 2005
In this paper we study the enforcement of social laws in artificial social systems using a control system. We define the enforceable social law problem as an extension of Tennenholtz' stable social law problem. We distinguish the choice of social laws from the choice of control systems, where the latter leads to new computational problems.

Optimal social laws

International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2010
Social laws have proved to be a powerful and theoretically elegant framework for coordination in multi-agent systems. Most existing models of social laws assume that a designer is attempting to produce a set of constraints on agent behaviour which will ensure that some single overall desirable objective is achieved.

Conservative Social Laws

2012
Social laws – sets of constraints imposed on the behaviour of agents within a multi-agent system with the goal of some desirable overall behaviour resulting – are an important mechanism for coordinating multi-agent behaviour. When considering social laws in human environments, the inspiration for social laws in multiagent systems ...

Social Norms And The Law

SSRN Electronic Journal, 1997
After one eats in a restaurant, that one has to leave a tip is a social norm, and that one has to pay for the food is law. As is evident from this both norms and the law influence our behaviour. The goods that we buy, the food that we consume, the services that we render and the opinions that we express are all influenced both by the law and the norms ...

The law of social participation.

American Journal of Sociology, 1921
Human nature is known through behavior, but the reaction must be studied in social relations not merely physiological reactions. The reality of the group has been too long neglected. Levy-Bruhl has a law of participation which assumes a difference between primitive man, whose mind is pre-logical, and modern man, a distinction which closer analysis ...

Social Laws and Social Facts

2021
Abstract Cassius Dio asserts that the emperor Augustus’ social legislation arose from an imbalance in numbers between men and women among the Roman elite. This chapter considers how this statement has been understood in historical readings of the laws. It also argues that Dio’s assertion should be seen instead as one more instance of the

Integrating Law and Social Epidemiology

Journal of Law, Medicine & Ethics, 2002
Social epidemiology has made a powerful case that health determined not just by individual-level factors such as our genetic make-up, access to medical services, or lifestyle choices, but also by social conditions, including the economy, law, and culture.

Law, social responsibility, and outsourcing

International Journal of Industrial Organization, 2014
Previous research into law and corporate social responsibility mostly assumes that the vertical structure of production is exogenous. By outsourcing, a brand may avoid some liability and responsibility, but lose direct control over the evasive actions that cause harm.

Social laws

2018
Social science has always aspired to be like natural science (Hawthorn 1976). And since natural science claims to discover laws of nature, social science has always claimed to discover laws of society. There are two important problems raised by such social laws. What makes the laws social in the appropriate sense?
