WHAT IS IT?

This model takes place at the level of the organizational field. There are three types of organizations represented: companies, professional associations and the courts.

The organizations are connected via a network.

The court has the same relationship to all companies (?):

a one-way link whereby courts can sanction companies that they deem out of compliance
they also get information from these companies (esp. the big ones??) about what constitutions compliance

Companies have policies

At each tick, companies decide how/whether to adjust their policies At each tick courts assess (some subset of?) companies and sanction those that are out of compliance
