We provide a survey of the micro and macroeconomics of climate change from a complexity science perspective and we discuss the challenges ahead for this line of research. We identify four areas of the literature where complex system models have already produced valuable insights: (i) coalition...

The process of electricity production, distribution, and consumption represents a complex system with many heterogeneous characteristics. Physical constraints of the electricity, especially the difficulties with its storage, pose specific challenges on the structure of the power network and the...

This work investigates the statistical properties of aggregate output growth rates in the U.S. and Italy. We show that in both countries growth rates follow an exponential-power density, with tails that are fatter than a normal distribution. Furthermore, fat tails appear to be robust with...

This paper investigates the statistical properties of within-country gross domestic product (GDP) and industrial production (IP) growth-rate distributions. Many empirical contributions have recently pointed out that cross-section growth rates of firms, industries and countries all follow Laplace...
