Abstract In reaction to the criticisms which analytical sociology has been subject with increasing frequency, article attempts an overall assessment of this research program by addressing following questions: where does contemporary come from? what are differences between “old” and “new” sociology? really consist of? do critics have good reasons be critical? Gross’s 2009 ASR is deeply discussed in order answer last question.
Abstract This study describes the assessment of landslide susceptibility in Sicily (Italy) at a 1:100,000 scale using multivariate logistic regression model. The model was implemented GIS environment by ArcSDM (Arc Spatial Data Modeller) module, modified to develop spatial prediction through regional data sets. A newly developed algorithm used automatically extract detachment area from mapped polygons. following factors were selected as independent variables model: slope gradient, lithology,...
In the COVID-19 crisis, compartmental models have been largely used to predict macroscopic dynamics of infections and deaths assess different non-pharmaceutical interventions aimed contain microscopic person-to-person contagions. Evidence shows that predictions these are affected by high levels uncertainty. However, link between is rarely questioned a critical scrutiny dependency on model assumptions missing in public debate. this article, I examined building blocks epidemic so influential...
Since Merton’s classical analysis of cumulative advantage in science, it has been observed that status hierarchies display a sizable disconnect between actors’ quality and rank they become increasingly asymmetric over time, without, however, turning into winner-take-all structures. In recent years, formal models tried to account for these facts by combining two micro-level, counterbalancing mechanisms: “social influence” (supposedly driving inequality) the desire “reciprocation deferential...
Cet article a un objectif général, permettre au lecteur survol des principaux thèmes théoriques et méthodologiques traversant les recherches relatives à, fondées sur, la simulation multi-agents. Il également spécifique : aider le à mieux comprendre contributions qui constituent numéro thématique que Revue française de sociologie voulu consacrer cette méthode. Pour ce faire, il aborde points suivants 1) l’originalité multi-agents ; 2) type d’explication méthode permet mettre en œuvre 3)...
Network scientists have proposed that infectious diseases involving person-to-person transmission may be effectively halted by targeting interventions at a minority of highly connected individuals. Can this strategy effective in combating virus partly transmitted close-range contact, as many believe SARS-CoV-2 to be? Effectiveness critically depends on high between-person variability the number contacts. We analyze population survey data showing indeed distribution contacts across...
This article offers a critical analysis of four contemporary sociological debates. Systematic the relevant literature suggests existence project for reformulating methodological foundations empirical quantitative sociology. reconstruction shows emergence following idea: an alliance variable analysis, mechanism methodology, and simulation techniques would be great help in resolving some impasses that “standard” sociology encounters. thesis is then tested social stratification: where there are...

Authoritative rational choice theorists continue to argue that wide variants of theory should be regarded as the best starting-point formulate theoretical hypotheses on micro foundations complex macro-level social dynamics. Building recent writings neo-classical theory, behavioral economics and cognitive psychology, present article challenges this view argues that: (1) is an astonishingly malleable powerful analytical device whose descriptive accuracy nevertheless limited a very specific...
RéSUMé. — L’article propose une analyse critique du concept de « modèle » et la place que celui-ci devrait occuper en sociologie. La première partie discute possibilité l’intérêt concevoir l’activité modélisation théorique comme construction systématique modèles générateurs ». deuxième trois différents types (les statistiques », les informatiques mathématiques »), elle s’interroge sur leurs capacités respectives mettre œuvre un générateur Dans cette partie, l’article consacre attention...
Cet article étudie la littérature sur le bien-fondé du lien entre les modèles à base d’agents artificiels et l’individualisme méthodologique. L’argument défendu est que ces analyses reposent une définition spécifique de méthodologique rendant ainsi conclusions dépendantes retenue. L’article propose alors considérer comme des « instruments génériques », savoir dispositifs ayant propriétés transversales problèmes explicatifs, domaines d’étude disciplines hétérogènes. De ce point vue, semblent...
L'article présente une analyse critique de quatre débats sociologiques contemporains. L'analyse systématique cette littérature suggère l'existence d'un projet reformulation des fondements méthodologiques la sociologie empirique quantitative. Notre reconstruction montre l'émergence l'idée suivante : afin résoudre certaines impasses socio-logie quantitative « standard », alliance entre l'analyse par variables, méthodologie mécanismes et les techniques simulation serait largement bénéfique...
The paper discusses Raymond Boudon's theory of ordinary rationality as well his assessment the so-called "analytical sociology". On first point, argues that, in order to combine realism an unconstrained conception with ex-ante facto predictive power narrow version rational choice theory, we should better understand relation between potentially triggering events and actor's "reasons". Heuristics, social identity, emotions are regarded good candidates advance that direction. second recalls...
