What can mathematical modelling contribute to a sociology of quantification? - Humanities and Social Sciences Communications

Sociology of quantification has spent relatively less energies investigating mathematical modelling than it has on other forms of quantification such as statistics, metrics, or algorithms based on artificial intelligence. Here we investigate whether concepts and approaches from mathematical modelling can provide sociology of quantification with nuanced tools to ensure the methodological soundness, normative adequacy and fairness of numbers. We suggest that methodological adequacy can be upheld by techniques in the field of sensitivity analysis, while normative adequacy and fairness are targeted by the different dimensions of sensitivity auditing. We also investigate in which ways modelling can inform other instances of quantification as to promote political agency.

“The current discussion over a transition towards a more sustainable bioeconomy reflects on a situation where a large dose of uncertainty exists, where stakes are high, and where decisions are urgent. These three premises of our modern predicament mean that, in terms of modelling, we are operating in the space of post-normal science.”

Trends in the EU bioeconomy.

Policy monitoring frameworks allow decision makers to assess the performance and progress towards specific strategic objectives that reflect an overall vision. The bioeconomy consists of complex social, economic, and environmental systems. The EU Bioeconomy Monitoring System was developed by the JRC to fulfil the need for a holistic policy monitoring framework and track economic, environmental and social progress towards a sustainable bioeconomy through relevant indicators. Here we present the first assessment based on the EU Bioeconomy Monitoring System.
