摘要:

对社会系统的状态和动态进行定量评估是一个非常困难的问题。无论是从实践上还是从理论上来说,它都具有重要意义,例如建立社会行动计划的效率,发现可能的社区需求或分配资源。本文提出了一个新的社会复杂性研究的一般理论框架,它基于复杂性与熵的关系,结合进化动力学来评估系统的动力学。施加热力学第二定律,我们研究的条件下出现的合作,并证明它取决于本地和全球健身的相对重要性。由于合作是可持续发展的核心概念,这种信息化的方法允许新的见解和手段来评估它使用亥姆霍兹自由能的概念。最后,我们引入了一组新的方程,考虑更一般的情况下,社会系统在时间和空间上的变化,并与我们的研究结果的可持续性。

英文摘要:

Assessing quantitatively the state and dynamics of a social system is a very difficult problem. It is of great importance for both practical and theoretical reasons such as establishing the efficiency of social action programs, detecting possible community needs or allocating resources. In this paper we propose a new general theoretical framework for the study of social complexity, based on the relation of complexity and entropy in combination with evolutionary dynamics to asses the dynamics of the system. Imposing the second law of thermodynamics, we study the conditions under which cooperation emerges and demonstrate that it depends of relative importance of local and global fitness. As cooperation is a central concept in sustainability, this thermodynamic-informational approach allows new insights and means to asses it using the concept of Helmholtz free energy. Finally we introduce a new set of equations that consider the more general case where the social system change both in time and space, and relate our findings to sustainability.
