About this book

The present work investigates global politics and political implications of social science and management with the aid of the latest complexity and chaos theories. Until now, deterministic chaos and nonlinear analysis have not been a focal point in this area of research. This book remedies this deficiency by utilizing these methods in the analysis of the subject matter. The authors provide the reader a detailed analysis on politics and its associated applications with the help of chaos theory, in a single edited volume.

Reviews

“The purpose of this book is to investigate global politics and political implications of social science and management, making use of the tools supplied by complexity and chaos theories. … The text has very great quality. The innovative approach of these phenomena makes its reading essential for social scientists and students and also for the general public. This is a methodological and original book, scientifically rigorous, fundamental and valuable.” (Manuel Alberto M. Ferreira, International Journal of Latest Trends in Finance and Economic Sciences, Vol. 5 (1), March, 2015)
