Description:
The paper is organized in three parts. It begins with a brief review of the substantive exchange of views in the case, including the Company’s position, the Attorney General’s position, and the analyses and counter analyses presented in support of these positions. In Part Two, the paper describes the participants and the schedule of the hearings. It is argued that the rapid pace of these hearings and the background of the participants are important determinants of usefulness of System Dynamics models under adversary proceedings. The third part of the paper concludes with a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of system dynamics under fast paced, adversary conditions.
