SUMMARY:LOGICIC Workshop 2013: Social Dynamics of 
 Information Change, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20131202
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20131204
LOCATION:Amsterdam, the Netherlands
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will create a platform f
 or researchers coming from different fields to pre
 sent their work and exchange ideas on the topic of
  social dynamics of information change. We look bo
 th at already-established work as well as the poss
 ible new connections that can emerge between the a
 reas of logic, belief revision theory, learning th
 eory, game theory and social science.   We are par
 ticularly interested in the conceptual-theoretical
  work as well as in the applications of formal mod
 els to specific multi-agent scenarios in which bel
 ief revision plays a crucial role. In contrast to 
 the classical single-agent approach to Belief Revi
 sion Theory, the new developments from the area of
  Logic and Game Theory make it now possible to pur
 sue a multi-agent perspective. Similarly, the stud
 y of the iterated belief revision procedures can b
 enefit from the work on learning strategies in For
 mal Learning Theory. Bringing the ideas from these
  different areas together allows us to put forward
  new theoretical work which can lead to new modeli
 ng techniques and offer a better understanding of 
 puzzling social-informational phenomena (such as p
 luralistic ignorance, the bandwagoning effect, gro
 up polarization, etc.).   For more information see

 This workshop will create a platform for researche
 rs coming\n        from different fields to presen
 t their work and exchange ideas\n        on the to
 pic of social dynamics of information change.  We\
 n        look both at already-established work as 
 well as the possible\n        new connections that
  can emerge between the areas of logic,\n        b
 elief revision theory, learning theory, game theor
 y and\n        social science.</p>\n      <p>\n   
      We are particularly interested in the concept
 ual-theoretical\n        work as well as in the ap
 plications of formal models to\n        specific m
 ulti-agent scenarios in which belief revision play
 s\n        a crucial role. In contrast to the clas
 sical single-agent\n        approach to Belief Rev
 ision Theory, the new developments from\n        t
 he area of Logic and Game Theory make it now possi
 ble to\n        pursue a multi-agent perspective. 
 Similarly, the study of the\n        iterated beli
 ef revision procedures can benefit from the work\n
         on learning strategies in Formal Learning 
 Theory. Bringing the\n        ideas from these dif
 ferent areas together allows us to put\n        fo
 rward new theoretical work which can lead to new m
 odeling\n        techniques and offer a better und
 erstanding of puzzling\n        social-information
 al phenomena (such as pluralistic ignorance,\n    
     the bandwagoning effect, group polarization, e
 tc.).\n      </p>\n    \n      <p>For more informa
