This book aims to offer a panoramic view of recent advances in spatial complexity, in order to enhance our understanding of complex spatial networks by simplicity in terms of the basic driving forces of systemic impacts, as well as in terms of modelling such systems. Simple models mapping out the evolution of complex networks are undoubtedly a key issue in spatial economic research. In exploring this untrodden ground, this volume pursues new interdisciplinary pathways for theoretical, methodological and empirical analysis in the complex interconnected space-economy, by highlighting ‘evolutionary’ directions and ‘unifying’ perspectives in this fascinating research field. Interdisciplinary and innovative overview of complexity issues in spatial and network systems Theoretical and empirical analysis as well as methodological discussions INDICE: Complexity, Evolution, and Simplicity in Space.- Evolutionary Networks in a Socio-Economic Context.- Empirical Aspects of Network Complexity in the Space-Economy.- Epilogue.
