Academic Programs: Mathematical Methods in the Social Sciences
http://www.tgs.northwestern.edu/academics/interschoolmasters/mmss
The Program in Mathematical Methods in the Social Sciences (MMSS) aims to help students develop advanced skills for formulating and analyzing mathematical models in the social sciences. Faculty and students in the program share the conviction that rigorous mathematical analysis of theoretical models can lead to a better understanding of social problems. The focus of the program is on formal theoretical models rather than statistical and quantitative data analysis.

THE FUTURE OF MATHEMATICAL SOCIOLOGY, AND THE LEGACY OF STUART C. DODD
http://www.newgenius.com/sociology
The "Road to Relativity Theory" was an interesting one. Albert Einstein has given credit to the mathematician Riemann whose non-Euclidian mathematics was one of those instruments of thought with which Einstein was able to work in order to develop the experimental physics and cosmology of relativity theory. This is an example of the study of mathematical lineages in history of science, in this case the history of physical and astronomical sciences.
In the study of social sciences, the scholarly analysis of mathematical lineages is certainly a minority pursuit, but I would suggest a very fruitful area for research in the study of those instruments of thought most suited to scientific innovation for social policy and political creativity.

We Need a Sociology of Mathematical Economics
http://www.econ.duke.edu/~erw/Preprints/EconSocEditorial.html
At the beginning of the new millennium, many historians affirm: 1) knowledge is always associated with a larger or smaller group of individuals who share some beliefs which join them in community; 2) the transformation of beliefs into knowledge serves the community's purposes in a local and contingent manner; 3) beliefs are transformed into knowledge in response to arguments that members of the community make to one another; and 4) the methods and arguments used within the community to transform beliefs into knowledge are mutable and indeed have not been stable over time. Thus to address the interrelationship of the two communities, we need to have histories and sociologies of those communities, and their conjoin, available to draw upon. That we do not have.
