Agent-Based Computational Economics (Tesfatsion) Provides information and resources pertaining to the computational study of economies modelled as evolving systems of autonomous interacting agents. Provided by Leigh Tesfatsion. http://www.econ.iastate.edu/tesfatsi/ace.htm
Extractions: (Graphic by T. Eymann) Agent-based computational economics (ACE) is the computational study of economic processes modeled as dynamic systems of interacting agents. Here "agent" refers broadly to a bundle of data and behavioral methods representing an entity constituting part of a computationally constructed world. Examples of possible agents include individuals (e.g., consumers, producers), social groupings (e.g., families, firms, communities, government agencies), institutions (e.g., markets, regulatory systems), biological entities (e.g., crops, livestock, forests), and physical entities (e.g., infrastructure, weather, and geographical regions). Thus, agents can range from active data-gathering decision makers with sophisticated learning capabilities to passive world features with no cognitive function. Moreover, agents can be composed of other agents, permitting hierarchical constructions. Current ACE research divides roughly into four strands differentiated by objective.

Extractions: by David C. Korten Those of us who seek to intervene in policy debates in favor of economic justice and environmentally sustainability are regularly assured by the world's power brokers that they are fully committed to these goals so long as economic growth and the expansion of free trade are not compromised by governmental restraints on the market. So sacred have growth and free trade become in our modern culture that only rarely do we find the courage to ask why they should be given precedence over the needs of people and nature. Indeed, why should we consider accelerating growth and trade to be of any importance at all except to the extent that they serve people and nature? When the proponents of growth, market deregulation, and free trade tout their benefits, it is well to bear in mind what some of the most outspoken of these proponents really have in mind. Take this account from a recent issue of

Capitalism - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia These theorists characterise capitalism as an economic system where capital A capitalist system is an economic system although often associated with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalism
Extractions: In common usage capitalism refers to an economic system in which all or most of the means of production are privately owned and operated , and where investment and the production distribution and prices of commodities goods and services ) are determined by the influence of supply and demand in a " free market ," rather than by the state . Those in control of the means of production generally run them for monetary profit . For examples of how capitalism has been defined by various sources, see Capitalism in Wikiquote Capitalism contrasts with socialism and communism , where the means of production, and the resulting products, are owned and used by the state, or by the community collectively. Capitalism is also contrasted with feudalism , where land may be privately operated, but is owned by the state and held in fee. An economy with a large amount of intervention (which may include state ownership of the means of production) in combination with capitalist characteristics is often referred to as a mixed economy , rather than a capitalist one . If intervention is to such a degree that it overwhelms private decision, such an economy is referred to as

Extractions: Civics and Government: Focus on Economics, Unit 1, Lesson 1 Lesson Description Students provide their own examples of the six characteristics of a market economy as they exist in the United States today. Then they see how the U.S. Constitution supports those characteristics by reading relevant portions of the Constitution, and matching these provisions with the six characteristics of a market economy. The lesson concludes by having the students read and discuss relevant portions of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China. They then write essays contrasting the impact of the economic provisions of the two constitutions on the characteristics of each nation's economy. Introduction Constitutions are economic documents as well as political documents. This is certainly true of the Constitution of the United States. Our nation's founders believed that economic freedom as well as political freedom are essential for national prosperity and growth. Accordingly, they included numerous provisions in the Constitution that support and encourage the operation of a market economy. Thus, as the basic "law of the land," the U.S Constitution defines the essential features of our economy. Grade Levels Grades 6-12, all students
