The Governance Cycle in Parliamentary Democracies: A Computational Social Science Approach
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1009315471 | 228 Pages | PDF | 2 MB
Parliamentary democracy involves a never-ending cycle of elections, government formations, and the need for governments to survive in potentially hostile environments. These conditions require members of any government to make decisions on a large number of issues, some of which sharply divide them. Officials resolve these divisions by 'logrolling'- conceding on issues they care less about, in exchange for reciprocal concessions on issues to which they attach more importance. Though realistically modeling this 'governance cycle' is beyond the scope of traditional formal analysis, this book attacks the problem computationally in two ways. Firstly, it models the behavior of "functionally rational" senior politicians who use informal decision heuristics to navigate their complex high stakes setting. Secondly, by applying computational methods to traditional game theory, it uses artificial intelligence to model how hyper-rational politicians might find strategies that are close to optimal.

The Market Cycle: A Guide to Understanding the Basic Mechanics of The Market Cycle by Michael J. Ross
English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BR75KCK5 | 63 pages | EPUB | 0.21 Mb
The ups and downs of the market are common knowledge, but how can you know when to get out and when to stay in? The solution is rarely cut and dried but can be gleaned from an appreciation of the logic behind cyclical phenomena. Knowing where we are in a cycle requires understanding the cyclical patterns that affect the economy, markets, corporations, human psychology, and the investing behaviors that emerge from these shifts.

Malcolm Davies, "The Greek Epic Cycle"
English | 1989 | ISBN: 1853990396 | PDF | pages: 104 | 2.1 mb
In the wake of Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey", poets of the seventh and sixth centuries BC composed epics which covered other parts of the Trojan War story or different areas of Greek mythology. Quotations from them and other testimonies as to their content survive in later authors and the evidence thus assembled allows us to reconstruct something of the poems' contents. Collectively these poems came to be known by Hellenistic scholars in Alexandria as 'The Epic Cycle'. With their often grotesque and fantastic tales, the cyclic poems were an important source for later writers of epic. Yet they also present a wealth of fascinating mythological details in their own right and provide absorbing variation on the traditional themes presented in Homer. Why are certain themes frequently used, while others are neglected in various poems? Such considerations enhance an overall appreciation of epic theme and outlook. This short study provides an introduction to the Cycle for students and scholars of Greek epic, and of Classical civilisation and mythology more generally. All quotations are translated, making the material accessible to those with little or no Greek.
