SUMMARY:Workshop Logical Methods for Social Concep
 ts (LMSC), Bordeaux
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20090720
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20090731
LOCATION:Bordeaux
DESCRIPTION:Both computer science and the social s
 ciences are interested in social concepts such as 
 power, cooperation, responsibility, delegation, tr
 ust, reputation, convention, agreement, commitment
 , etc. The aim of this workshop is to study whethe
 r logical approaches developed in the multi-agent 
 system (MAS) domain are adequate to express them i
 n an accurate way. The workshop is intended to bri
 ng together logicians and social theorists in orde
 r to provide a better understanding of the potenti
 alities and limitations of logical methods for the
  analysis of social reality. Its scope includes no
 t only the technical aspects of logics for multi-a
 gent systems, but also multidisciplinary aspects f
 rom social sciences (e.g. economics, sociology, so
 cial philosophy) and a critical analysis of the ex
 isting logical frameworks for the specification of
  social concepts. It is organized as part of ESSLL
 I'2009.   For more information, see http://www.iri
 t.fr/~Andreas.Herzig/Esslli09 .    Authors are inv
 ited to submit an extended abstract presenting an 
 approach which is relevant to the area of logic fo
 r multi-agent systems. Submission deadline (extend
 ed): March 4, 2009
