NSF Posts White Papers on Future Research in the Social, Behavioral & Economic Sciences

Wow! NSF posted 244 separate "white paper" recommendations on how to provide "innovative research for the year 2020 and beyond that enhances fundamental knowledge and benefits society in many ways."  Here are just a few that stood out.  Send me those you find especially interesting and I'll post them too, along with ideas for QIPSR workshops for 2011-2012.

• See UK Sociologist, Tom Janoski's, "THE VORTEX OF LABOR."
• Edward Glaeser's, "Bounded Rationality in Markets and Government" ("Economists have begun to develop the tools needed to allow more psychological realism in our models, … One important step is to understand how erroneous beliefs are propagated or minimized by market settings.")
• Bernice A. Pescosolido and Ann McCranie, "The Role and Potential Impact of Social, Behavioral and Economic Science Approaches to Networks in the First Half of the 21st Century"
• Philip A. Schrodt, "Predictive Models for Political Instability"
