Abstract
A kinetic equation of the Boltzmann kind is adopted to approach the analysis of a population of individuals subject to social interactions. The state variable, referred to a dominant social feature such as the individual wealth, is defined on the whole real axis. Different kinds of interactions are allowed, both on a stochastic and a deterministic basis. Structural parameters are varied, and the related system sensitivity analysed. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
