Doyne Farmer and Martin Reeves
Making Sense of Chaos with Doyne Farmer
Boston Consulting Group, 2024
Sobre o que é?
Complex Systems Thinking could transform traditional economic models, analysis, and forecasting.
Recommendation
Traditional economic theory tends to function adequately under fairly simple scenarios. However, as complexity in a system increases, the efficacy of conventional models deteriorates. In a recent Boston Consulting Group-Henderson Institute podcast, moderator Martin Reeves interviews Doyne Farmer, a leader in complex systems who brings a new perspective to economics. According to Farmer, Complex Systems Thinking — and in particular Agent-Based Modeling — provide far more accurate forecasting and analytics. Economists, business owners, and investors interested in a rigorous examination of emerging economic reasoning will find this a robust analysis.
