Abstract
Game theory assumes that it must be possible for a conflict represented by a game to be satisfactorily resolved without re-defining the game itself. Drama theory asserts that full conflict resolution generally requires players to engage in a rationalemotional process of re-defining both the game and their "positions" in it until there exists a fully satisfactory resolution on which they all agree. In re-defining the game and their positions in it, players must eliminate six “dilemmas”, each of which therefore tends to cause emotions and rationalisations tending toward its elimination.
