Understanding the future

Roberto Poli

pp. 59-76

Abstract

Futures Study is the field that during the past 60 years has more than any other systematically dealt with the future. This chapter presents anticipation as the third level of futures studies, after forecast and foresight modeling, and connects anticipation with related issues such as utopias and future-generating research.
