Wagener Author-Workplace-Name: University of Amsterdam Title: Shallow Lake Economics Run Deep: Nonlinear Aspects of an Economic-Ecological Interest Conflict Abstract: This discussion paper led to a publication in Computational Management Science, 2013, 10(4), 423-450.

Outcomes of the shallow lake interest conflict are presented in a number of different contexts: quasi-static and dynamic social planning, and quasi-static one-shot and repeated non-cooperative play. As the underlying dynamics are non-convex, the analysis uses geometrical-numerical methods: the possible kinds of solutions are efficiently classified in bifurcation diagrams.
