Produktbeschreibung
A new understanding of how society works What drives our social mood? Our actions? Our motivations? The answers to these questions can be found in the new science of socionomics. Pioneering Studies in Socionomics is the follow-up to Prechter's groundbreaking introductory text on socionomics, The Wave Principle of Human Social Behavior. It's comprised of a rich collection of insightful studies and essays representing over 20 years worth of research into this new model of thought. Socionomic theory evolved from the Wave Principle, a model of financial pricing and catalog of price patterns identified by Ralph Nelson Elliott in the 1930s. Robert Prechter proposes that our social lives are patterned in much the same way as the financial markets. Prechter explains that people in groups share a collective disposition or mood that motivates social, political, economic and financial action. Come along as the proto-socionomists map their way through uncharted seas to introduce, test and practice their newly discovered craft.
Autorenporträt
Robert R. Prechter is known for developing a theory of social causality called socionomics and for his career applying and enhancing the Wave Principle, R.N. Elliott's fractal model of financial pricing. Prechter has made presentations on socionomic theory at the London School of Economics, the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, MIT, Trinity College Dublin, Georgia Tech, SUNY and various academic and financial conferences. In 2005, Prechter created the Socionomics Institute, which is dedicated to research and the application of socionomics, and the Socionomics Foundation, which supports academic research in the field. Prechter and colleagues have written several academic papers, including "The Financial/Economic Dichotomy" (2007) and "Social Mood and Presidential Elections" (2012), which became the third most downloaded paper on the Social Science Research Network that year. Prechter graduated from Yale University in 1971, joined the Market Analysis Department of Merrill Lynch in New York in 1975 and founded Elliott Wave International in 1979, where he has published monthly market analysis in The Elliott Wave Theorist. He is a member of the Triple Nine Society and the Shakespeare Oxford Society. Prechter has authored, edited or contributed to 18 books. His latest work, "The Socionomic Theory of Finance," aims to replace conventional financial and macroeconomic theory with an internally and externally consistent paradigm based on socionomics.
