Introduction
“The health and vitality of relationships, groups, and the society at large is strongly challenged by social dilemmas, or conflicts between short-term self-interest and long-term collective interest. Pollution, depletion of natural resources, and intergroup conflict, can be characterized as examples of urgent social dilemmas.” (Introduction to social dilemmas), retrieved Aug 7, 2012.
Social dilemmas also appear in various educational design that stress knowledge building and sharing, etc.
