Modelling the Emergence of Shared Attitudes from Group Dynamics Using an Agent‐Based Model of Social Comparison Theory
We propose a novel agent‐based implementation of Festinger's social comparison theory (SCT). The social comparison model (SCM) consists of connectionist networks that simulate agent‐level social comparison processes. Agent networks are combined into an adaptive network structure that is shaped by social comparisons between individual agents. Simulations show how the SCM produces behavior consistent with the empirical literature on group dynamics.…
Past Settlements Interpretations of the Migration Period from 1918 to 1945
The history and archaeology of the early Germanic peoples played a significant role in German claims to territory from 1914 to 1945. Kossinna explicitly used archaeology to define the Heimat of the Germans, both before 1914 and also in works written in attack the Versailles settlement. Despite the loss of substantial territory to France in 1919, both the Weimar Republic and the National Socialist governments sponsored research into territory to t…
Defining the Franks
Barbarians, Historians, and the Construction of National Identities
This article looks at the changing discourse in the historiography of Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages, and the way in which that discourse is influenced by and influences attitudes toward the nation. Although the arrival of Germanic peoples had been an issue before the early eighteenth century, in the last century of the Ancien Regime the history of the Franks suddenly became a matter of major debate because it was seen as being relevant…

Transformation of the Roman World
The Fall of the Western Empire and the End of Roman Britain
Between the usurpation of Constantine III and the death of Aetius there are a handful of dateable events associated with the British Isles. Of these the best recorded are the two visits of Germanus to Britain in 429 and c 435. The narrative account of these visits, however, is contained in Constantius's Vita Germani, a work in which literary and theological concerns may well triumph over factual accuracy. Speculation about sub-Roman Britain on th…
