Politics sit at the nexus of multiple complex systems, including: financial markets, evolving technological ecosystems, global trade networks, foreign governments, domestic belief networks, and many more. The interdependencies between these systems often limit the value of linear models of political phenomena. However, complexity science can offer new lenses for analyzing these phenomena. For example, if democracy constitutes a collective intelligence, can we identify adjacent collective intelligences - such as political betting markets - that provide more frequent data on the state of the electorate? If we can model the forces that drive polarization in an electorate, can we better understand our current political situation and thus better intuit future regulatory trends? This day-long meeting will explore how insights from complexity science can help us to better anticipate and understand political risk. Overview Agenda *All times in U.S. Eastern.

Join us for a discussion about urban wildfires in the context of a changing climate. Sign up for the Climate at the National Academies newsletter Read the highlights: The Growing Challenge of Urban Wildfires Relevant Resources: The Social-Ecological Consequences of Future Wildfire and Smoke in the West (2024) The Chemistry of Fires at the Wildland-Urban Interface (2022) Wildland Fires: Toward Improved Understanding and Forecasting of Air Quality Impacts (2022) Why and When is Respiratory Protection Needed? (2022) Implications of the California Wildfires for Health, Communities, and Preparedness (2020) About the Event The recent wildfires in the greater Los Angeles area call attention to the risks to people and property in urban areas. We hosted a Climate Conversation to highlight the lessons learned and opportunities for science to support impacted communities, drawing on experience from other major urban fires in the last few years. The event unpacked the range of factors that are contributing to urban wildfire risk, and explored the impacts on health, infrastructure, and other human systems, as well as discussed how communities can prepare and move forward in the aftermath of a disaster. Climate Conversations: Pathways to Action is a monthly webinar series from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine that aims to convene high-level, cross-cutting, nonpartisan conversations about issues relevant to policy action on climate change. Participant Bios Michael Méndez is an assistant professor of environmental policy and planning at the University of California, Irvine and Visiting Scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (through a National Science Foundation Early Faculty Career Award). His first book “Climate Change from the Streets,” published through Yale University Press (2020) was the winner of the Harold and Margaret Sprout Award, given to the best book in the field of international environmental studies and politics
