How do we - societies and individuals alike - (sometimes) manage to
act in line with our high priority goals when faced with
tempting-yet-conflicting alternatives? In other words, how do we
(sometimes) resolve a conflict between a superordinate, global goal
and a subordinate, local one, and do so in favor of the global
goal? These types of self-control dilemmas can be found in many
contexts and may be described at many levels of analysis. Examples
include the dilemmas faced by groups fostering cooperation among
their members, when defection is more beneficial for each
individual; dieters resisting a tempting cake, and the cognitive
system trading off speed for accuracy in conflict tasks like the
Stroop.
