Rivalries, Alliance Structure, and War Diffusion: Computational Model of Network Structure and Macro-dynamics

• In Event: Formal Modeling and Conflict

Brief Overview

We analyze how crisis diffusion through war joining behavior produces a “world war” and how the risk of a chain reaction is shaped by the configuration of alliances and rivalries by developing an agent-based computational model.
