While there is a lot that seems to fit with applying complexity theory to economics, I am always uneasy that the area just doesn't seem to yield any overriding direction for people to follow.

Powerful and followable ideas at the level individual decision maker, applied many times over can make big changes in systems. But what story can be told to capture the actions needed at an decision level?

BTW: you might find this paper interesting.
