Abstract: Abstract The Compram methodology, developed by DeTombe (© 1993.) a methodology for handling policy problems of complex societal problems, is based on the theory described in the Chaps. 3 – 6 of this book. The methodology gives no algorithm for the solution of a problem, only guidelines, suggestions, and heuristics on how to handle a complex societal problem in order to make policy on it. The methodology should be regarded as a framework in which steps for analyzing and handling are given. At each step one or more methods, models, and tools can be added. Basically the steps should be approached sequentially and should be traversed several times iteratively.
