Abstract
GMA is especially suitable for pitting one type of structure against another – for instance a scenario model against a strategy model. This chapter presents the different types of models that can be developed with GMA and the different contexts that these represent. A detailed case study of a so-called duplex scenario–strategy model is presented. The study was done for the Swedish Ministry of Environment concerning the development of an Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) system in Sweden.
Portions of the text in this chapter are based on the articles Stenström and Ritchey (2004); Ritchey (2006a).
