. Finally, our collaboration with sociologists is still on its way: the main perspective of the third part of this thesis is to continue to develop and explore the kind of models we presented. Is it possible to build a solid bridge between physicists' models starting from simple agents and Tarde's theories demanding to start from complex monads? Bibliography
