Strategic conflict arises whenever humans interact, individually or in groups. Recently-developed methodologies and techniques that can help analysts understand strategic conflicts and provide strategic support to negotiators have been of great benefit to decision makers. New theoretical issues are now being explored, and at the same time new software systems are making modeling easier and analytical results clearer. Both theoretical and practical approaches have been used to study strategic conflicts in diverse areas including environmental management, global warming, energy, the food crisis, economic disparities, international trade and aging infrastructure. The main objective of the Stream on Conflict Resolution is to provide a forum for discussion of recent advances in the development of formal conflict resolution techniques and their insightful application across a range of domains. Prospective authors are cordially invited to submit original research and applications.
