  Environment-induced decoherence and superselection have been a subject of
intensive research over the past two decades, yet their implications for the
foundational problems of quantum mechanics, most notably the quantum
measurement problem, have remained a matter of great controversy. This paper is
intended to clarify key features of the decoherence program, including its more
recent results, and to investigate their application and consequences in the
context of the main interpretive approaches of quantum mechanics.
