Scholars interested in the emergence of social simulation as a methodology in many research fields and disciplines should consider The 7th European Social Simulation Association Conference.   The conference takes place in Montpelier, France, from September 19th to 23rd 2011.

 Papers and presentations will focus on a wide range of actual research from very abstract artificial societies to empirical models, from methodological advances to simulation results and their comparison with evidence, from theoretical developments on decisions, networks, collective action, and policies to the lessons of simulations for decision-makers.
