Abstract

In the literature a certain number of solution concepts for conflict situations have been proposed; some of these concepts are reviewed here within the framework of hypergraph conflict analysis as developed by the authors and some of their colleagues. The paper concludes with the description of a solution that sidesteps the problem of interpersonal utility comparison.
