Abstract
At the end of Chapter 6, we introduced a proposal for an approach to decision making in the wicked problem context that incorporates key elements of procedures required under the National Environmental Policy Act, known as the NEPA process (Council on Environmental Quality 1987, 2007), and the concept of learning networks as described by the National Research Council (1996). Figure 6.2, presented on page 126 of the previous chapter, depicts this approach.
