London, UK. How can we make the most of the resources at our fingertips while retaining a sense of control and understanding? How, moreover, can we make the most of the human capacity for reasoning and creativity in an age where technologies like big data and artificial intelligence (AI) are encroaching on areas of expertise?
Computational social science (CSS) has historically been associated with agent-based models of complex social systems but during the last decade, this field has been redefined, most notably by David Lazer et al in an article published in 2009—Life in the network: the coming age of computational social science.
While not a discipline in its own right, the design, collection, analysis and presentation of data is the foundation upon which knowledge claims must sit. And throughout our history, SAGE has committed to publishing research methods: our founder, Sara Miller McCune, published SAGE’s first methods book in 1970. Since then SAGE has committed to publishing research methods through journal articles, textbooks and now a suite of born-digital products to support scholars as they develop their fields.
