This paper is devoted to the use of multiobjective programming models for integrated economic and environmental policymaking in a spatial context. An interactive (ideal point) method is proposed as an operational technique for arriving at meaningful compromises between conflictual options. The analysis is illustrated by means of an interregional policy model with economic and environmental conflicts.
