Marc Keuschnigg

 Marc Keuschnigg is Professor of sociological theory at Leipzig University, Professor at the Institute for Analytical Sociology, and co-leader of the Swedish Excellence Center for Computational Social Science (both at Linköping University). Keuschnigg serves as Vice-President of the International Network of Analytical Sociology, and he is a member of the Leibniz Institute GESIS’s board of trustees. He received his Ph.D. in sociology from LMU Munich in 2012. His research interests include cultural dynamics, social norms, and computational social science more generally. Much of his work centers around how people use social cues to guide their behavior and how these behaviors interact to bring about hard-to-predict collective outcomes. Keuschnigg is also engaged in a spatial perspective to sociology, especially in relation to social inequality within and between cities. His work has been published in sociology journals such as the European Sociological Review, Poetics, Sociological Science, and Sociological Methods & Research as well as in general interest journals, including Management Science, Nature Human Behaviour, PNAS, and Science Advances. He has received awards from the International Network of Analytical Sociology and the German Sociological Association for contributions to economic sociology and the field of model building and simulation.
