Constructing Operational Value Systems for Proposed Two-Unit Coalitions

Part of the math needed for writing the software, this paper was written in the early seventies at the beginning of Warfield's exploration of the potency of Interpretive Structural Modeling. To view the full copyrighted abstract written in Warfield's own words please use http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/4045074/#document-tabs. Presented at IEEE Conference on Decision & Control, 5-7 December 1973, San Diego, CA.

 Quotation from the INTRODUCTION section of the paper: "Social units may be as small as single individuals and as large as nations or even continents.  Coalitions can persist and expand, as did the coalition of 13 states to form the United States, and they can survive only briefly as in marriages that last just a few weeks."
