“…Notably, economists have begun to use ABM, especially since the 2008 financial crisis [14,15,16,17,18]. ABMs have also been used to study housing segregation beginning with models based on ethnic homophily and over time introducing models of market dynamics [13,[19][20][21][22][23][24]. Another line of research investigates labor markets, referrer networks, segregation, and affirmative action [25][26][27][28].…”

Agent-based modeling (ABM) is a versatile social scientific research tool that adapts insights from sociology and physics to study complex social systems. Currently, ABM is nearly absent from legal literature that evaluates and proposes laws and regulations to achieve various social goals. Rather, quantitative legal scholarship is currently most characterized by the Law and Economics (L&E) approach, which relies on a more limited modeling framework. The time is ripe for more use of ABM in this scholarship. Recent developments in legal theory have highlighted the complexity of society and law’s structural and systemic effects on it. ABM’s wide adoption as a method in the social sciences, including recently in economics, demonstrates its ability to address precisely these regulatory design issues.

“…96 If the prevailing norm was one of racial exclusivity in housing, the key was to prevent whites from deviating from this norm. 97 If they did not sell, there would be no homes for blacks to buy. White voluntary associations realized that the key to keeping neighborhoods all white was pinpointing whites who were at risk of defection.…”

Why are the black brownstone owners in Harlem and Brooklyn disproportionately West Indian? The landlords, West Indian-American? The tenants African-American? These are tough questions. For students of housing discrimination, West Indian Americans have long presented a quandary. If it is reasonable to assume that racial exclusions are being consistently applied to persons who are dark-skinned, one would expect to find that housing discrimination has had similar effects on West Indian-Americans and African-Americans. Yet this is not the case: West Indian-Americans generally own and rent higher quality housing than African-Americans. Moreover, these advantages began long ago. For example, when racial covenants, that is, restrictions barring racial and ethnic groups from owning real property in particular neighborhoods were rife in New York, they were not consistently applied against West Indians, who were sometimes able to

“…A survey of existing literature shows a small number of critical race theorists working at the intersection of CRT and the social sciences. These scholars have worked in many areas, including sociology, social psychology, anthropology, economics, psychology, and political science, for example (Barnes & Chang 2012;Barnes & Onwuachi-Willig 2005;Bridges 2011Bridges , 2013Brooks 2008;Carbado & Gulati 2000Carbado & Harris 2008;Cho 2009;Gómez 2013;Haney-López 2000;Harvey 2012;Kang 2005Kang , 2010Kang , 2012Lane et al 2007;Obasogie 2006Obasogie , 2008Obasogie , 2011Obasogie , 2014Onwuachi-Willig et al 2008;Parks 2008aParks ,b, 2012Parks & Rachlinski 2010;Parks & Roberson 2011;Paul-Emile 2012;Quintanilla 2011Quintanilla , 2012Roberts 1991Roberts , 1995Roberts , 1997Roberts , 2001Roberts , 2004Roberts , 2008Roberts , 2011aRoberts ,b, 2012aRobinson 2008a,b;Roithmayr 2000Roithmayr , 2003Roithmayr , 2004Roithmayr , 2008Roithmayr , 2010Roithmayr , 2014.
