***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org ***** OK I understand. I presume you know the work of Ian Lustick on multicultural identity formation through agent-based simulations and his studies of historical selection. Have you checked out the papers in the site of "Terrorism, Nonlinearity & Complex Adaptive Systems"? This is at: http://www.cna.org/isaac/terrorism_and_cas.htm Since the 1980s there is a stream of work on chaos theory and war. I don't know if you would be interested in that (you might already know about it). If you want me I could send you some references in this field.
