Abstract: |
This
paper introduces and analyses the idea of the binding structure of a social
interaction scheme. Binding structures are proposed as means to model the
binding power that an interaction scheme imposes on agents interacting
according to the scheme, in a social con- text. The paper considers the case
of a basic interaction scheme, namely, the basic Producer-Consumer scheme,
to explain the way the binding structure builds on the operational structure
of that scheme, in particular how the binding structure is constructed in
terms of binding relations. In addition, the non-reducibility of binding
structures to their component binding relations is established. The
importance of a detailed analysis of the derivation scheme of binding
structures from operational structures of interaction schemes, including the
role that legal and moral norms may play in such derivation, is briefly indicated. The relevance of the ideas introduced in
the paper for the concrete representation of macro-level social structures as
macro-level artifacts in social simulation is also indicated. |
