The article clarifies the distinction between “contradiction” and “conflict” notions (proposed in its first part) based on conflictological works of P.G. Kuznetsov, L. Kriesberg, J.W. Burton et al. It reviews the options of monitoring the achievement of interdisciplinary business game (IBG) remote sub-goal — formation of a new way of thinking among its participants. In addition, the article proposes IBG invariant in LT-dimension — as a basis for constructing a system of parameters for evaluation of the IBG process and results, as well as a foundation for the model of in-game interactions between its participants.
