Zusammenfassung:A strategy derived from the field of international conflict -- deliberately irrational action -- is examined as a solution to the formation of systemic traps in therapeutic situations.

A case is presented to illustrate the principles proposed. 2 Appendixes, 15 References. Modified HA
