In hmolscience, Krzysztof Kulakowski (c.1950-) is a Polish physicist noted for a number of publications and lectures, beginning in circa 2005, in sociophysics.
Overview
In 2007, Kulakowski, in his chapter “Around the Gap between Sociophysics and Sociology”, defined Serge Galam as “one of the leading authors in sociophysics”. [1]
In 2008, Kulakowski, “Sociophysics: an Astriding Science”, focused on asking if the second law of thermodynamics can be useful in the social sciences”, which he does not seem to think is the case. [2]
In 2013, Kulakowski, in query about if he would be interested in being on the JHT review board, commented the following: [3]
“I would accept it willingly, but the problem is that I deeply do not believe that thermodynamics can be fruitful in solving social sciences, where I work.”
See objections to human thermodynamics for more on these types of opinions.
