Needs and Resources

Every stakeholder has several needs and some resources available for the common action, and they have to identify them in order to identify possible solutions that may address the needs.

Group thinking and Group polarization

Group thinking[1][2] is a state where the group's SON is unchallenged by criticism. It can be caused by group settings that inhibit any criticism on the group's SON, like excluding members that do not conform to the group's beliefs or denouncing refuting evidence as illusions, heresy or efforts of some other rival ideology to break the group ideology.

Group thinking will cause the group to become conservative, and under influence of perceived danger may cause group polarization. Extremism in social networks.
