Abstract

This chapter is key for all readers as it outlines the 13 challenges that the study of social complexity must address to advance as a transdisciplinary disruptive science. These situations range from ignoring the social sciences and qualitative methods, to treating computational models and simulation as the holy grail to all things socially complex, to failing to address issues of power and inequality in systems, to being tone-deaf about the real world. By understanding these situations, readers will gain a strong sense of the innovations and advances numerous fields we survey in the Atlas make to overcome those 13 situations. This chapter works in conjunction with the critical history of Chapter 2.
