Do Equilíbrio de Nash às estratégias para o conflito entre governo e invasores nas áreas de mananciais da Região Metropolitana de São Paulo

Abstract

The thesis is that the conflict is the main cause of the postponement (by the government) of actions that could solve or mitigate the problems related to the occupation of water source regions in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo. The overall objective of the research is to propose strategies to confront the conflict to the government and thus, open possibilities to contain the invasion and remove invaders from areas of springs. The specific objectives are (1) to present and analyze the strategies of the players (government and invader) based on the theory of Nash equilibrium and (2) to highlight the importance of game theory and in particular, Nash equilibrium as method to elaborate proposal conflict resolution according to selected strategies. The research methodology is qualitative and quantitative. The quantitative research is based on the data required for the use of game theory (urban spot growth, real estate prices, among others) and numerical simulations arranged in matrices. The qualitative, in the study of the literature on the problem of the occupation of springs that in turn, led to the design of possible strategies (for the solution of problems)
