Goalweave
Agree on actions that serve several groups' different purposes without merging the purposes
Definition
Mechanism
Groups with different purposes agree on actions that serve each group's own Goal. The agreement records, for each action, which purpose each group pursues through it, and no group is asked to adopt another's purpose.
Invariants
- Each agreed action records which purpose each group pursues through it.
- No group's participation is conditioned on adopting another group's purpose.
Risks
Failure modes
