Popis: This paper introduces the concept of narrative and its construction into the structure of agent-based modeling, as an effective mechanism for representation of stochastic behavior by agents in the context of social phenomena that are governed by fundamental random processes. A theoretical foundation is offered, citing authorities from the narrative community and related biological, sociological and psychological fields. The fundamental properties of narratives and their relationships are described, and potentially useful lines of further research are posited.
