The Attractor Software (r) demonstrates the complex dynamical properties of conflict systems in a simple and accessible way. It is used both as a decision-making device, assisting policy makers in decision making, and as a negotiation tool for complex, multi-stakeholders negotiations, it also serves as an educational tool, where the dynamical properties of extended, systemic conflict situations are illustrated.
