Abstract

ResumenEn los últimos anos, se ha generado un interesante debate académico sobre las posibilidades que los sistemas complejos y los modelos multiagentes brindan al estudio de los procesos sociales y las dinámicas económicas. El artículo hace una presentación de este nuevo marco teórico y de algunas de sus herramientas metodológicas a través de la discusión de dos investigaciones preliminares: la primera, explora la existencia de redes en el sistema urbano latinoamericano y la otra referida al estudio de los mercados de suelo en las periferias urbanas, que enfatiza sobre la incidencia de la informalidad en la ocupación del suelo y la distribución espacial de los precios. Las posibilidades de extensión a modelos y aplicaciones futuras mediante esta nueva perspectiva se discuten al final del documento y se invita al uso de este tipo de herramientas por parte de los analistas económicos contemporáneos. AbstractIn recent years, there has been an interesting academic debate about possibilities that complex systems and multi-agent based models provide to study social processes and economic dynamics. The article presents this new theoretical framework and some of its methodological tools through the discussion of two preliminary research: the first explores the existence of networks in the Latin American urban system and the other one refers to a market research of the land at urban peripheries, which emphasizes on the incidence of informality in land use and spatial distribution of prices. The possibility of extending to models and future applications by using this new approach is discussed at the end of the document and it also invites contemporary economic analysts to use such kind of tools.
