Swedish Morphological Society

General Morphological Analysis (GMA) is a method for structuring and analysing the total set of relationships contained in multi-dimensional, non-quantifiable, problem complexes. Developed by the Swedish National Defence Research Agency in the middle of the 1990s, it can be used for structuring complex policy and planning issues, developing scenario and strategy laboratories, and analysing organisational and stakeholder structures. GMA is especially useful for working with so-called Wicked Problems.

The Swedish Morphological Society is a non-profit scientific organization, whose purpose is the development and dissemination of knowledge concerning the scientific use of morphological analysis, its theory and practice. This site contains articles and links on morphological analysis, its pioneer Professor Fritz Zwicky (California Institute of Technology), and on Projects where morphological analysis has been utilized. A preliminary Tutorial: "Modeling Complex Socio-Technical Systems using Morphological Analysis", is on the tutorial page.
