抄録: | This paper explores whether agent-based systems thinking and analysis could contribute to the highly practical task of resolving major public policy dilemmas - in this case UK policy on RW disposal, where policy has come full circle in 30 years with little net progress on developing a long-term strategy. The paper examines the chronology of events and the key actors and considerations in the decision-making process. Some key factors identified include the tension between national and local interests, and the lack of consensus on the potential role of nuclear power. Looking at the issue from a systems thinking perspective provides some useful insights. The “root definition”, a device invented in Soft Systems Methodology, is currently narrowly drawn whereas a broader perspective might assist different groups to accept trade-offs in the environmental area. The technical complexity and CATOWE diversity argue for a strategy supporting accommodation which has been substantially lacking in many stages of the process- particularly the critical stage of obtaining local approval for implementing a national strategy. Overall this preliminary evaluation suggests potential for systems scientists to apply their methodology to this intractable area of policy. |
