Abstract
Decision-making processes in policy making with multiple-stakeholders can be complex because of the technically advanced systems that are decided upon, e.g. water management systems. But the complexity is often also caused by social dependencies and interests at stake. This can lead to processes in which stakeholders firmly defend their interests, resulting in behavior that is so defensive that it severely blocks the process. For this reason, policy makers are trying to find a di↵erent approach.
