1 hr confidence: peer agreement (net): +7
peer agreement (net): +7strategic pursuit of interests Explanation: I think "conflict of interests" is quite good, only I can't help feeling there's very slightly more to it than that. "Conflict of interests" does not necessarily imply that it is deliberate: a conflict of interests might arise accidentally, when none of the parties has actually intended it, whereas to me "jeux" implies that people are battling it out with every intention of winning, each advancing their own individual interests at the expense of everyone else. So "the strategic pursuit of (individual) interests" might be one way of putting this, retaining the idea of "game" with "strategic". There may be more succinct ways, but perhaps something along those lines. |
