Scenarios

Which World offers global scenarios for the 21st Century. While I have not had time to run through all the material this was the sort of thinking I had to do in my life as a technocrat in the UK so I am generally scepto-sympathetic.

Scenarios are not predictions. Rather they help us visualize different possibilities, take account of inherently unpredictable events, challenge our implicit but often deeply held assumptions or worldviews about the future. As such, scenarios can help to free us from the grip of the past and enable us to prepare for a future that will assuredly be different from today.
