Sociophysics of intractable conflicts: Three-group dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2018
We extend a sociophysics model of two-group conflict dynamics to three groups. The model with attractors and chaos is proposed as a tool for exploring and managing intractable conflicts. It can be used to generate scenarios of trajectories and outcomes.
