OVERVIEW

This question examines intergroup conflict. Competing objectives and unequal capabilities can turn disagreement into coercion or organized violence. Its surrounding discussion also concerns conscious experience: the discussion depends on how experience is attributed to beings whose internal states may be inaccessible.

The analytical issue is how these conditions affect relations between groups, conflict escalation, cooperation, and responses to unfamiliar agents. The node treats the potential dysfunction as an open problem: its identification does not demonstrate that the anticipated outcome will occur or that an assumed technology is feasible.
