This “computational reactor” has the potential to transform the study of any substantive problem, from political polarization or residential segregation to the emergence of cultural block-busters or breakthrough scientific ideas. Computational methods extend and complement familiar methods.
One of the consequences of the introduction and extension of computing in sociology is the division of sociologists into two antagonistic groups: the empiricists and the humanists.
