理解混乱:为了更好的世界创造更好的经济学
简介:
‘Doyne Farmer is the world's leading thinker on technological change. For decades he has focused on the question of how we can make sense of the data of today to see where the world is going tomorrow. This wonderful book applies these insights to economics, addressing the big global issues of environmental sustainability, and the well-being and prosperity of people around the world’ Max Roser, Founder of Our World in Data
We live in an age of increasing complexity, where accelerating technology and global interconnection hold more promise – and more peril – than any other time in human history. As well as financial crises, issues around climate change, automation, growing inequality and polarization are all rooted in the economy, yet standard economic predictions fail us.
Many books have been written about Doyne Farmer and his pioneering work in chaos and complexity theory. Making Sense of Chaos is the first in his own words, presenting a manifesto for doing economics better. In a tale of science and ideas, Farmer fuses his profound knowledge with stories from his life to explain how to harness a scientific revolution to address the economic conundrums facing society.
Using big data and ever more powerful computers, we can for the first time apply complex systems science to economic activity, building realistic models of the global economy. The resulting simulations and the emergent behaviour we observe form the cornerstone of complexity economics. This new science, Farmer shows, will allow us to test ideas and make significantly better economic predictions – and, ultimately, create a better world.
“道恩·法默是全球技术变革领域的顶尖思想家。几十年来,他一直专注于如何利用今天的数据来预测世界明天的走向。这本精彩的资料籍将这些洞见应用于经济学,探讨了环境保护的全球性大问题,以及世界各地人民的福祉和繁荣” —— 马克斯·罗瑟,Our World in Data 创始人
我们生活在一个日益复杂的时代,其中加速发展的技术和全球互联带来的希望与危险超过了人类历史上的任何时期。除了金融危机,气候变化、自动化、不断加剧的不平等和极化问题都根植于经济,然而标准的经济预测却屡屡让我们失望。
关于道恩·法默及其在混沌和复杂性理论领域的开创性工作,已经有许多资料籍问世。《理解混乱》是法默亲自撰写的第一本资料,他提出了一个更好的经济学实践的宣言。在科学与思想的叙述中,法默将他的深厚知识与生活中的故事融合在一起,解释了如何利用科学革命来解决社会面临的经济难题。
利用大数据和日益强大的计算机,我们第一次可以将复杂系统科学应用于经济活动,建立全球经济的真实模型。由此产生的模拟和我们所观察到的涌现行为构成了复杂性经济学的基础。法默展示,这一新兴科学将使我们能够测试想法,做出显著更好的经济预测,并最终创造一个更好的世界。
