Resumen:
We study a model of opinion formation where the opinions in conflict
are not equivalent. This is the case when the subject of the decision
is to respect a norm or a law. In such scenarios, one of the possible
behaviors is to abide by the norm and the other to ignore it. The
evolution of the dynamics is implemented through an imitation
mechanism, in which agents can change their opinions based on the
opinions of a set of partners and their own state. We determine, for
different social situations, the minimum percentage of supporters of
the law necessary to arrive at a state of consensus of law abiders.
