  3. Introduction "The Economic Crisis is a Crisis for Economic Theory" “[...] systematic warnings over more than a century [...] have been ignored and we have persisted with models which are both unsound theoretically and incompatible with data . It is suggested that we drop the unrealistic individual basis for aggregate behavior and the even more unreasonable assumption that the aggregate behaves like such a rational individual . We should rather analyse the economy as a complex adaptive system , and take the network structure that governs interaction into account.” Kirman, 2010 Roukny, Battiston, Bersini, Pirotte (ULB) Default Cascades in Scale-free Networks September 11, 2012 3 / 33
