In winkelwagenDelays, nonlinearities, lack of firm boundaries and other properties of systems that surprise us are found in any system. There are many forms of systems trouble, some of them unique, but many are very common.
How do we call the system structures that produce such common patterns of problematic behavior?
Archetypes.
They need to be changed. The destruction they cause is often blamed on particular actors or events, although it is actually a consequence of system structure.

What are the 8 archetypes?
1. Policy resistance trap: fixes that fail.
2. The tragedy of the commons trap.
3. Drift to low performance.
4. Escalation.
5. Succes to the successful: competitive exclusion.
6. Shifting the burden to the intervenor: addiction.
7. Rule beating.
8. Seeking the wrong goal.

Why aren't archetypes not just traps?
They also have opportunities. A problem can be transformed, with little system understanding, to produce more desirable behaviors.
It is about recognizing archetypes in advance and not getting caught in them, or altering the structure.

The first archetype is 'policy resistance trap: fixes that fail'. What is it and when does it happen?
When various actors try to pull a system state toward various goals, the result can be policy resistance.
Any new policy, especially if it's effective, pulls the system state farther from the goals of other actors and produces additional resistance, with a result that no one likes, but that everyone expends considerable effort in maintaining.

What happens with 'policy resistance trap: fixes that fail', when various actors try to pull that stock in different directions?
In an actor gains an advantage and moves the system stock in one direction, the other double their efforts to pull it back.
Together, the countermoves produce a standoff, the stock is not much different from before and that isn't what anybody wants.

What is the way out to the 'policy resistance trap'?
- Overpower policy resistance: power approach can work, at the costs of resentment and possibility of explosive consequences.
- Let go: give up ineffective policies. Let the resources and energy be used for more constructive purposes and seek out mutually satisfactory ways for all goals to be realized.
- Find a way of aligning the various goals of the subsystems: providing an overarching goal that allows all actors to break out of their bounded rationality.
input text value
The second archetype is 'the tragedy of the commons trap'. What is it and when does it happen?
When there is a commonly shared resource, every user benefits directly from its use, but shares the costs of its abuse with everyone else. There is a very weak feedback from the condition of the resource to the decisions of the resource users.
The tragedy of the commons arises from missing (or too long delayed) feedback from the source to the growth of the users of that resource.
input text value
What is the consequence of 'the tragedy of the commons trap'?
Overuse of the resource, eroding it until it becomes unavailable to anyone.
