Analytic Narratives wed traditional game theoretic modeling to hermeneutic social science methods. I argue that reliance on these traditional modeling techniques undermines this hermeneutic approach and, further, that insights on social cognition, reward, emotion, beliefs, altruistic behavior, trust, and others generated by neuroscience can improve analytic narrative modeling and sustain its hermeneutic program. I illustrate these claims in a neuroscientifically informed, behavioral analytic narrative of ethnic mobilization by ethnic Serbs in Croatia. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
