Working Papers:
- Party competition: an agent-based model (with Ernest Sergenti). A book-length manuscript that develops a dynamic agent based spatial model of multi-party competition. This deals, among other things, with: interactions between party leaders using different decision rules; endogenous birth and death of political parties; satisficing behavior by party leaders; evolutionary stability of combinations of decision rules; effects of party leaders’ non-policy valence; effects of party leaders who value personal policy preferences as well as increased party vote share; empirical patterns of dynamic party competition; rigorous characterization of the output of computational models. A current version of the full manuscript is available in from the authors.
