Abstract
This payer considers the changing policy-making context and how this is inc reasing the complexity of policymaking. It argues that a useful way of deal ing with this problem is the development of the ability of policy-makers to appreciate wholes and gain a systems awareness of the issues surrounding p olicies. It offers simulation gaming as a way of rapidly developing this ab ility. Copyright (C) 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
