The graph model for conflicts in environmental planning

The graph model for conflicts is used to model and analyze an environmental planning dispute in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. This complex strategic conflict, involving the federal government of Canada, the provincial government, of Saskatchewan, a quasi -judicial review panel, and environmental groups, is used to illustrate key features of the graph model and techniques for applying it. The resolutions predicted by the analysis concur with actual events and provide insights into the dynamics of the dispute. Sensitivity analyses are used to indicate whether and how different preferences would have altered the eventual outcome of the conflict
